Martin Bell

Martin Bell (born 31 August 1938) is a British UNICEF Ambassador, former broadcaster, war reporter and independent politician who was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Tatton from 1997 to 2001. He is known as "the man in the white suit".

As a BBC reporter, he pioneered an approach to journalism he later described as a "moral enterprise" informed by the individual journalist’s personal sense of “right and wrong", and which, as he put it, "cares as well as knows; that is aware of its responsibilities; and will not stand neutrally between good and evil, right and wrong, the victim and the oppressor."
