Lord Lipsey’s Death Prompts River Safety Concerns
Labour Peer Lord David Lipsey, aged 77, was found dead after swimming in the River Wye near Glasbury, Wales, following a multi-agency search on July 1. Dyfed Powys Police recovered his body after he was last seen swimming, and his next of kin have requested privacy. Lord Lipsey, a former journalist and adviser to Prime Minister Jim Callaghan, became a life peer in 1999 and was known for coining the phrases 'New Labour' and 'winter of discontent.' He was an active campaigner for water quality in the River Wye and had swum there with his wife for nearly 30 years. Tributes from colleagues and the Lord Speaker highlighted his public service and dedication. The incident has prompted renewed attention to river safety and pollution issues in the area.
