Robert Parry (8 January 1933 – 9 March 2000)[1] was a British Labour Party politician who was Member of Parliament in Liverpool for 27 years.
[2] He was known as a hard-line left-winger who opposed any policy moves which he saw as edging Labour away from pure socialism.
He once branded Neil Kinnock a "traitor" over the latter's denunciation of the Militant tendency activists who dominated local government on Merseyside.
In 1992, Parry was arrested in Beijing when he and his colleagues unfurled a banner in Tiananmen Square protesting the shootings which had taken place there in 1989.
