Howel Walter Samuel (1881 – 5 April 1953)[1] was a British Labour Party politician.
He was elected as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Swansea West at the 1923 general election,[2] winning a 3-way contest by a majority of only 115 votes (0.6% of the total),[3] having contested the seat unsuccessfully in 1922. He was defeated at the 1924 general election by the Liberal Party candidate Walter Runciman,[2] but at the 1929 general election Ruciman stood instead in St Ives and Samuel regained the seat.[2]
In 1931, when Labour had split over its leader Ramsay MacDonald's decision to leave the party and form a Conservative Party-dominated National Government, he faced only one opponent, the Liberal National candidate Lewis Jones, who took the seat. Samuel did not stand for Parliament again.[2]
