James Hogge

James Myles Hogge (19 April 1873 – 27 October 1928) was a British social researcher and Liberal Party politician.

On 4 February 1905, Hogge married Florence Rebecca Metcalfe, a widow from Malton in Yorkshire.

In December 1910, Hogge stood as Liberal candidate in the Camlachie division of Glasgow, losing narrowly to a Liberal Unionist; The intervention of the women's suffrage candidate, had the effect of ensuring the election of Mackinder, who opposed women's suffrage at the expense of Hogge, who supported it.

An opponent of the Lloyd George coalition, he was not given the 'coupon' at the general election of 1918 but increased his majority as an independent Liberal.

He had misgivings about H. H. Asquith's leadership, however, and fell out of favour with the 'Wee Free' party establishment.
