Original Note:
Michael Cashman is not and has never been an MP. He was an MEP from 1999-2014, and a peer since 2014. He lost the Labour whip in 2024 after calling Rosie Duffield MP too "frit or lazy" to go to hustings. Chris Smith was the first MP to come out as HIV+. https://members.parliament.uk/member/4340/career https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Cashman https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jun/16/labour-peer-says-sorry-for-calling-rosie-duffield-too-frit-or-lazy-to-go-to-hustings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Smith,_Baron_Smith_of_Finsbury#:~:text=For%20the%20majority%20of%20his,Master%20of%20Pembroke%20College%2C%20Cambridge.
