Thomas Passmore
Thomas Passmore (1931–1989) was a unionist politician in Northern Ireland.
Born in Belfast, Passmore worked as a salesman. In 1973, he became Grand Master of the City of Belfast Grand Orange Lodge. He also became Chairman of the Woodvale Unionist Association and a Justice of the Peace.〔''The Times Guide to the House of Common: May 1979'', p.49〕 In 1976, Irish Republican Army (IRA) members killed his father in an attack which Passmore claimed was aimed at him.〔David McKittrick, ''Lost Lives'', p.673〕 In 1977, he gave a speech attacking the United Unionist Action Council and its plans for a general strike, claiming that it had been in discussions with the IRA.〔(A Chronology of the Conflict - 1977 )", CAIN Web Service〕
Passmore was the Ulster Unionist Party candidate for Belfast West at the 1979 UK general election, taking second place and almost a quarter of the votes cast. He was then elected to the Northern Ireland Assembly, 1982, representing Belfast West.〔(West Belfast 1973-82 ), Northern Ireland Elections〕 He stood again for the Westminster seat at the 1983 UK general election, but his share of the vote fell back to only 5.5%.〔(West Belfast 1983-92 ), Northern Ireland Elections〕
