You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Bertie Hazell''', [[Order of the British Empire|CBE]] (18 April 1907 – 11 January 2009), also known as '''Bert Hazell''', was a [[Labour Party (UK)|British Labour Party]] politician and trade union activist.

The son of a [[Norfolk]] farm worker, he left school at 14 to work on a farm in [[Wymondham]], where his duties included scaring crows. When agricultural wages slumped after the [[First World War]] sparking the Norfolk farm workers' strike in 1923, Hazell became active in the [[National Union of Agricultural and Allied Workers|National Union of Agricultural Workers]].<ref>((cite news |title=Workers' hero birthday marked |url=http://www.dissmercury.co.uk/content/dissmercury/news/story.aspx?brand=DMAOnline&category=news&tBrand=DMAonline&tCategory=news&itemid=NOED26%20Apr%202007%2018%3A43%3A43%3A990 |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=Diss Mercury |date=26 April 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071019085030/http://www.dissmercury.co.uk/content/dissmercury/news/story.aspx?brand=DMAOnline&category=news&tBrand=DMAonline&tCategory=news&itemid=NOED26%20Apr%202007%2018%3A43%3A43%3A990 |archive-date=19 October 2007))</ref> He worked as a district organiser for the NUAW, 1937–1964.<ref>((cite news |last1=Dalyell |first1=Tam |authorlink1=Tam Dalyell |title=Bert Hazell: Trade union leader and Labour MP who championed the cause of agricultural workers |url=http://independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/bert-hazell-trade-union-leader-and-labour-mp-who-championed-the-cause-of-agricultural-workers-1452239.html |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=[[The Independent]] |date=21 January 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090124142648/http://independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/bert-hazell-trade-union-leader-and-labour-mp-who-championed-the-cause-of-agricultural-workers-1452239.html |archive-date=24 January 2009 |url-status=live ))</ref>

He unsuccessfully contested the safe Tory parliamentary seat of [[Barkston Ash (UK Parliament constituency)|Barkston Ash]] in Yorkshire in the 1945 and 1950 elections, before returning to Norfolk to help [[North Norfolk (UK Parliament constituency)|North Norfolk]] Labour MP [[Edwin Gooch]]. In 1945 he came within 116 votes of victory in Barkston Ash.<ref>((cite journal |title=Bert Hazell - President |journal=Country Standard |date=July 2007 |url=https://country-standard.blogspot.com/2007/07/bert-hazell-president.html |access-date=12 October 2019))</ref>

He was elected Member of Parliament (MP) for North Norfolk in 1964 by just 53 votes.  The constituency was unusual in being an agricultural seat electing Labour MPs since 1945, owing to a history of organised agricultural trade unionism and a working-class rural Labour vote in Norfolk at the time, very atypical of the rest of the country.<ref>((cite book |last1=Waller |first1=Robert |last2=Criddle |first2=Byron |title=The Almanac of British Politics |date=2007 |isbn=978-0-203-94691-6 |page=706 |edition=8 |url=((GBurl|YnAmle9e7AMC|page=706)) |access-date=12 October 2019))</ref> He was re-elected in 1966, when his majority was 737 votes. He lost his seat at the [[1970 United Kingdom general election|1970 general election]] to the [[Conservative Party (UK)|Conservative]] [[Ralph Howell]] who held the seat for 27 years.  Subsequently, Labour have never regained Norfolk North, and were relegated to third place when the [[Liberal Democrats (UK)|Liberal Democrats]] gained the seat in [[2001 United Kingdom general election|2001]].<ref>((cite news |title=Bert Hazell |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/4349103/Bert-Hazell.html |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |date=26 January 2009))</ref>

As president of the NUAW for 10 years until he retired in 1978, Hazell devoted nearly 60 years to the cause of agricultural workers. He had a lengthy career in the health service including as chair of York Health Authority in the 1980s.<ref>((cite news |title=Tributes paid to Labour stalwart Bertie Hazell |url=https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/4049793.tributes-paid-to-labour-stalwart-bertie-hazell/ |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=[[The Press (York)|The Press]] |date=15 January 2009))</ref>

Hazell was made an MBE for services to agriculture in 1946 and a CBE for services as chairman of the regional board for industry in 1962.<ref>((cite news |last1=Roth |first1=Andrew |authorlink1=Andrew Roth |title=Bertie Hazell |url=https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2009/jan/22/obituary-bertie-hazell |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=[[The Guardian]] |date=22 January 2009))</ref>

Hazell, who reached his 100th birthday in April 2007, was the third longest-living MP in British history; only [[Theodore Cooke Taylor]] (102) and [[Ronald Atkins]] (104) have lived longer. On 6 November 2008 he overtook [[Manny Shinwell, Baron Shinwell|Lord Shinwell]]'s record as the longest-living former MP of recent times.<ref>((cite news |last1=Walker |first1=Tim |title=The longest life in politics |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/mandrake/3380752/The-longest-life-in-politics.html |access-date=12 October 2019 |work=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |date=4 November 2008))</ref> Upon Hazell's death, [[James Allason]] became the oldest living former MP.

He died on 11 January 2009, aged 101. He was three months short of his 102nd birthday.<ref name="Who Was Who">((Who's Who |id=9780199540884.013.U19619 |title=Hazell, Bertie |access-date = 10 October 2019))</ref>
