Maurice Robert Hely-Hutchinson MC MP (22 May 1887 – 11 February 1961) [1] was a Conservative Party politician in England.
He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Hastings in East Sussex at a by-election in 1937. He held the seat until the 1945 general election, when he stood down from Parliament. During The Great Depression Hely-Hutchinson caused some controversy when he remarked that the long-term unemployed should lose the right to vote. [2]
His parents were Sir Walter Hely-Hutchinson, Governor of the Cape Colony, and May Hely-Hutchinson.
He was married to Melita Keppel, daughter of Admiral Sir Colin Richard Keppel.
