John Lutey

John Thomas Lutey (18 December 1876 – 22 June 1932) was the Labor Party member for the Western Australian Legislative Assemblyrepresenting the seat of Brownhill-Ivanhoe from 1917 to 1932.

In 1895 he migrated to Western Australia with his brother and sister, working as a gold miner at Kalgoorlie until at least 1904.

Lutey became active in the trade union movement, and joined the Australian Labour Party.

Lutey subsequently resigned Brownhill-Ivanhoe on 15 September, not having been sworn in, to allow Scaddan to reclaim the seat.

Two months later he contested Brownhill-Ivanhoe in a ministerial by-election, this time in opposition to Scaddan, who had joined the National Labor Party.
