Richard Tufnell
Richard Lionel Tufnell (10 December 1896 – 1 October 1956) was a Conservative Party politician in the United Kingdom.
He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Cambridge at a by-election in 1934, following the ennoblement of the Conservative MP Sir George Newton as Baron Eltisley.
Tufnell retained the seat at the 1935 general election, but at the 1945 general election he was defeated by Labour's Arthur Symonds.
