Robert Arthur Taylor (17 October 1886 ā€“ 5 April 1934) was an English politician, Labour MP for Lincoln from 1924 to 1931.[1]

Taylor was born in Metheringham in Lincolnshire, and became a tailor in Lincoln. He also studied at Ruskin College. He was a supporter of the Labour Party, and served on Lincoln City Council from 1914.

gollark: It means that i^i is a real number (or , strictly speaking, all the values of it are real).
gollark: This is presumably not the same as actually being drunk.
gollark: I'm immune to peer pressure up to about 712GPa.
gollark: This is NOT true. I have not in any way been sponsored by pizza companies. There have been no advertising agreements whatsoever with any companies producing pizza or otherwise to have me subliminally advertise pizza, as my profile picture is not a pizza. Since it is not a pizza, this is obviously not pizza advertisement whatsoever. No monetary exchanges or otherwise have occurred with companies engaged in pizza production for any reason relating to my profile picture. You are clearly engaged in libel and attempting to discredit my non-pizza-advertising status. It is IN NO WAY subliminal pizza advertising because I DO NOT work for pizza companies in any form. It's not pizza. There were no deals, under-the-table or otherwise, with pizza companies. No pizza companies pay for any kind of subliminal advertising involving me. People make that mistake, but I am not working for pizza companies doing subliminal advertising; that is not in any way what I am doing. I am NOT being sponsored by ANY pizza companies to display subliminal pizza advertising OF ANY KIND.
