Info | David Blunkett is a British Labour Party politician and the MP for Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough, having represented Sheffield Brightside from 1987 to 2010. Blind since birth, and coming from a poor family in one of Sheffield's most deprived districts, he rose to become Education Secretary, Home Secretary and Work and Pensions Secretary in Tony Blair's Cabinet following Labour's victory in the 1997 general election.
He departed from government in 2004 following the revelation of an affair Blunkett was having while serving as Home Secretary, and left government again in 2005 following the release of a series of reports about his external business interests during his brief time outside the cabinet, though it was later found in the resulting investigation that he had not acted improperly.
