Lord Alan Haselhurst, former Conservative MP and Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons, died on Tuesday at the age of 88. Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle described him as a 'distinguished and respected parliamentarian', while Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he would be 'deeply missed, especially on the opposite benches'. Haselhurst was MP for Saffron Walden from 1977 to 2017, after being initially elected for Middleton and Prestwich in 1970. He became Deputy Speaker and Chair of the Ways and Means Committee in 1997, and in 2018 he was made a life peer.

Sir Keir paid tribute during Prime Minister's Questions, highlighting his impact on politics. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch expressed her sadness, emphasizing Haselhurst's integrity and calm authority. He served for 40 years in Parliament and had an encyclopedic knowledge of his community, being respected and appreciated by the residents of North West Essex. Condolences have been sent to his wife, Lady Angela, and family.
