:''For the James Haslam who founded Pilot Corporation, see James Haslam Jr.'' James Haslam (1 April 1842 – 31 July 1913) was a British politician, representing Chesterfield as an MP from 1906 to 1913 Before entering Parliament in 1906, Haslam had been a founder member〔(painting ), Haddon, BBC, retrieved 28 July 2014〕 and served as a leading official of the Derbyshire Miners’ Association (DMA) since its inception some 30 years earlier. He was returned in 1906 as a Liberal candidate, but won the two General Elections of 1910 as a Labour candidate. He died in 1913 in Chesterfield aged 71. He currently has a statue outside the former Miner’s Offices on Saltergate at Chesterfield. Sarah Cottrell originally from Chesterfield but now resides in Lambley, Nottingham is currently in possession of the thumb from the left hand of this statue; it came to her after a daring raid by her brother some time in the 1990's ==References== *J.
