Ernle David Drummond Money (17 February 1931 – 16 April 2013) was a Conservative Party Member of Parliament for Ipswich.

Biography

Money was educated at Marlborough College and Oriel College, Oxford. He served in the Suffolk Regiment from 1949 to 1951. He was called to the Bar in 1958.

Money was elected MP for Ipswich in the 1970 general election with a majority of only 13 votes, the lowest majority of that election. He defeated Labour incumbent Sir Dingle Foot (Michael Foot's brother) and was reelected in the February 1974 election, although he subsequently lost the seat in the October 1974 election to Labour's Kenneth Weetch.

Money retired to Eastbourne in the 1990s. In 2010 he was reported in local press urging voters not to re-elect Eastbourne's Conservative MP Nigel Waterson but instead to vote for his LibDem opponent Stephen Lloyd. Money had homes in both Eastbourne and Malta.
