Dafydd Wigley
Dafydd Wynne Wigley, Baron Wigley (born 1 April 1943), born David Wigley, is a Welsh politician.〔 He served as Plaid Cymru Member of Parliament for Caernarfon〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Plaid peer Dafydd Wigley to champion disability rights )〕 from 1974 until 2001 and as an Assembly Member for Caernarfon from 1999 until 2003. He was leader of the Plaid Cymru party from 1991 to 2000. On 19 November 2010 it was announced that he had been granted a peerage by the Queen, and took his seat in the House of Lords as Baron Wigley, of Caernarfon on 24 January 2011.
Wigley was born in Derby, England, the only child of Elfyn Edward Wigley and Myfanwy Batterbee. He attended Caernarfon grammar school and Rydal School before going on to the Victoria University of Manchester〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wigley accepts Plaid peerage call )〕 and training as an accountant. He was employed by Hoover as a financial controller before entering parliament.
He married the international harpist Elinor Bennett. The couple had four children, but two sons died of a genetic illness. His sons' condition influenced the direction of his career, and he took a strong interest in the affairs of disabled people, being vice-chairman of the Parliamentary all-party disablement group, vice-president of Disability Wales, vice-president of Mencap (Wales), former president of the Spastics' Society of Wales and sponsor of the Disabled Persons Act in 1981.
