Lilian Greenwood is the UK Labour MP for Nottingham South. [1] She was in May 2010 with a majority vote of 1,772. [2]

Greenwood has been shadow transport minister for the Labour Party since October 2011 when leader Ed Miliband asked her to take on responsibility for the local transport brief. In January 2013 she switched to the shadow rail brief. [3]

Background

Before entering parliament as an MP Greenwood worked as a regional official for the trade union, UNISON.
