David Simpson Biography

David Simpson is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on February 16, 1959 in Moy, County Tyrone, Moy, County Tyrone, United Kingdom. Thomas David Simpson (born 16 February 1959) is a Democratic Unionist (DUP) politician in the United Kingdom. He was the Member of Parliament for Upper Bann in Northern Ireland. On 6 November 2019 Simpson announced that he would not be standing for re-election in the 2019 general election.

Simpson won the parliamentary seat from Trimble in the 2005 general election and retained his council seat. He was re-elected to the Assembly in 2007 but resigned from the Assembly and from Craigavon Borough Council after being returned to Westminster in the 2010 general election.

Simpson used parliamentary privilege in 2007 to accuse Sinn Féin MLA Francie Molloy of involvement in the 1979 killing of Simpson’s cousin, a former police officer. He alleged that Molloy had been an informer working for the British state within the IRA. Molloy denied both claims.

He spoke and voted against the UK Government’s Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill in February 2013 stating that “this is not the jurisdiction of this house […] this is an ordained constitution of God, and that’ll end in ‘In the garden of Eden it was Adam and Eve it wasn’t Adam and Steve.'” The Bill covers England and Wales as family law is devolved in Northern Ireland.

He has been DUP Spokesperson on Trade and Industry (2005–2007), Transport (2007–2009), Young People (2007–2010), International Development (2007–2010), and Business, Innovation and Skills (2009 to present), Communities and Local Government (2010 to present) and Education (2012 to present).
