Edward Doran
Edward Doran (1885 – 15 December 1945) was a British film producer and politician who served as a Conservative Member of Parliament. He was known for his populism and for summing up his arguments in emotive phraseology. His reaction to the arrival of Jewish refugees verged on antisemitism and he hosted Hitler's representative at the House of Commons; however his alleged neglect of his constituency caused difficulties and he was defeated for re-election after a single term.
==Early life==
Doran was born in Failsworth, Lancashire in 1885,〔M. Stenton and S. Lees, "Who's Who of British MPs", Vol. III (Harvester Press, 1979), p. 98.〕 although his year of birth is given inaccurately as 1892 in some sources,〔Richard Griffiths, "Fellow Travellers of the Right", Constable, 1980, p. 81.〕 including Who's Who.〔"Who Was Who", A & C Black.〕
He was educated at St Mary's School in Failsworth, and at Manchester Grammar School.〔 During the First World War, he enlisted in the Empire Battalion of the Royal Engineers; in January 1916, as a Corporal he claimed a world record for individual recruiting, having secured 8,700 recruits in the space of eleven months in London.〔"News in Brief", ''The Times'', 19 January 1916, p. 5.〕 First working on the railways, he later moved into the film industry,〔 and later gave his occupation as film producer.〔"The Times House of Commons 1931", p. 58.〕 Doran was an experienced traveller in Canada and the USA and gave lectures on life in North America, and on the history of the western United States.〔
