David Logan (politician)

David Gilbert Logan (22 November 1871 – 25 February 1964), known as Davie Logan, was a British Labour Party politician of Scots-Irish descent.[1] He succeeded T.P. O'Connor as member of Parliament for Liverpool Scotland in 1929, 44-years after O'Connor had been first elected.

Born in the Scotland Road area of Liverpool, Logan was the son of Thomas Logan, a ship's cook, and Catherine McHugh.[1]

He was Member of Parliament (MP) for Liverpool, Scotland from 1929 until his death in 1964, aged 92, becoming the oldest MP since Samuel Young in 1918. Logan was a longtime associate of the previous MP T.P. O'Connor as well as himself having a strong involvement in the Irish Nationalist movement prior to joining the Labour Party, serving on Liverpool city council as a nationalist councillor.
