Who is Jenny Tonge, Baroness Tonge?
Jennifer Louise Tonge, Baroness Tonge is a politician in the United Kingdom. She was Liberal Democrat Member of Parliament for Richmond Park in London from 1997 to 2005. In June 2005 she was made a life peer as Baroness Tonge, of Kew in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, which entitles her to a seat in the House of Lords. Her support for the Palestinian people and criticism of Israel, which she has described as "America's aircraft carrier in the Middle East", has led to some controversy and to her eventual resignation from the Liberal Democrats.
