Member Of Parliament (United Kingdom)
In the United Kingdom, a member of Parliament (MP) is an individual elected to serve in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

George Eure, 7th Baron Eure
George Eure, 7th Baron Eure (–1672)Date of death There is some disagreement if George was the 6th or 7th Baron. For example, John Burke states he was the 7th baron while Charles Firth states he was the 6th (, ). was a Parliamentary supporter during the English Civil War and was the only holder of a peerage created before the Interregnum to sit in Cromwell's Upper House. Lord George inherited the title from his cousin William Eure, 6th Baron Eure, a colonel in the Royalist army who died fighting at the Battle of Marston Moor. Mark Noble suggests that as Lord George was not wealthy, he chose the side which was evidently the most powerful. Though he was a peer of the realm, he did not think it beneath him, to sit in the house of commons, as a member for Yorkshire, he accepted a nomination to the Barebones Parliament called by Oliver Cromwell in 1653, and was elected to parliament for the East Riding of that county in the First Protectorate Parliament 1654, and he was elected in 1 ...
