Michael Neubert

Sir Michael Jon Neubert (3 September 1933 – 3 January 2014) was Conservative MP for Romford from 1974 until 1997.

His loss in the landslide 1997 general election was considered something of a surprise.

[citation needed] He was educated at Bromley Grammar School and Downing College, Cambridge, and worked as a travel and industrial consultant.

He contested the parliamentary seat of Hammersmith North in 1966, and Romford in 1970, before being elected in February 1974.

In April 1990 he visited Gruinard Island to declare the island safe after World War II Anthrax experiments.
