Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox officeholder George Dawson (10 May 1961 – 7 May 2007) Was a Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) politician who was a Member of the Northern Ireland Assembly (MLA) for East Antrim from 2003 to 2007.

Background

Dawson was first elected to the Northern Ireland Assembly for East Antrim at the 2003 election. He died shortly after being re-elected to the Assembly in 2007, following a short battle with cancer. He was seen as a potential member of the power-sharing executive of the first minister, the DUP leader Ian Paisley, whose evangelical Protestant and strong unionist beliefs he shared.[1]

Dawson was a founder in 1998, and was until his death the chairman, of the Caleb Foundation, a Christian fundamentalist pressure group. He was also Grand Master of the Independent Orange Order and Treasurer of the Evangelical Protestant Society.[2]
