Who is Andy Reed?
Andrew John Reed OBE is a British Labour Co-operative politician who was the Member of Parliament for the key marginal Constituency of Loughborough from 1997 to 2010.
He is a notable sports enthusiast, a fortuitous coincidence as "Loughborough is home to the most comprehensive sports development programme of any University," as well as being headquarters for Team GB's 2012 Olympic preparation, whose requirements Reed became familiar with under the Parliamentary Sports Fellowship Scheme.
Although regarded as a loyal MP, Reed was the first member of the Government to resign over the invasion of Iraq.
Reed was awarded the OBE in June 2012 for service to the community and sport in Leicestershire.
