Gen Sec of the NUT?[edit]

"He was educated at Jarrow Grammar School (now Jarrow School) in the same class as Doug McAvoy and later became general secretary of the National Union of Teachers."

This states that Cunningham later became Sec Gen of the NUT, which is incorrect; I've amended the wording in the article to make it clear that McAvoy was the future Gen Sec, not Cunningham. Martan 12:36, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Possible renaming of the page[edit]

As Dr Cunningham was already well-known before he was raised to the peerage as Baron Cunningham of Felling, the page should be known as "Jack Cunningham", not "Jack Cunningham, Baron Cunningham of Felling". Sdrqaz (talk) 22:10, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
