For more than 30 years, since she was elected the Member of Parliament for the former mining seat of Cynon Valley in South Wales, Ann Clwyd has been one of Labour's star performers. A consummate constituency politician, she has consistently been led by her conscience to support a number of human rights causes and campaigns, often beyond these shores, and most notably in the middle east. After holding a number of shadow ministerial posts she rose to particular prominence when Tony Blair made her his Special Envoy on Human Rights in Iraq in the run-up to the war, an association that would later cause her to be viewed with some controversy from within her own party.
