Thomas McMillan (British politician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thomas McLellan McMillan (12 February 1919 – 30 April 1980) was a Scottish Labour politician.

McMillan was a wood machinist at Cowlairs railway workshops. He was a councillor on Glasgow City Council from 1962 and of the city's Housing and Health Licensing Court.

McMillan was member of parliament for Glasgow Central from 1966 until 1980, when he died at a hospital in London due to injuries sustained falling from a bus two weeks prior.[1] The resulting by-election was won by Bob McTaggart, who himself also died in office in 1989.
