| I know little of Hugo Summerson except that he won some ridiculous prize, the Mills and Boons Prize for the Most Romantic MP, or something similar. So far as I know he was the only MP ever to win this prize. I think it was probably his only political honour. He turned up at council meetings a few times but I can not ever remember him speaking, or indeed having anything very much to say. |
