Paul Andrew Foster[1] is a British Labour Party politician who has been Member of Parliament for South Ribble since 2024.[2]

Foster was previously leader of South Ribble Borough Council for five years.[3] He is an army veteran and "never aspired to end up in Parliament when he first entered the political fray as a borough councillor 17 years ago" according to the local Blog Preston news site.[4]

In his maiden speech, Foster said, "I was brought up in Barrow-in-Furness, and I have a continuing passion for Barrow AFC. However, during the crippling strikes at the shipyard in 1988 in response to Mrs Thatcher's targeted attacks on the UK's manufacturing industry, I ended up joining the British Army's Corps of Royal Engineers at the tender age of 18." Foster served for just under 15 years, "serving operationally in the first Gulf war on Operation Haven and in the Kosovo conflict in 1999, to name but two." He left the army in 2003.[5]
