Timeline
Fatchett was a councillor on Wakefield Metropolitan Council from 1980 to 1984. He became a lecturer in Industrial Relations (now known as Work and Employment Relations Archived 28 February 2009 at the Wayback Machine) at the University of Leeds in 1971, staying there until he became an MP, which he was nominated for at the expense of Stanley Cohen, who wanted to join the SDP.
Two years later, whilst still in office, Fatchett died suddenly on the night of 9 May 1999 (aged 53), from a massive heart attack after collapsing whilst relaxing with his wife and close friend Colin Crane in a Wakefield pub.

The by-election for his seat was won by Hilary Benn.

His interest outside politics included cricket and football (he was a WBA supporter). He was very open to new technology, touring a number of computer facilities in the UK, beginning with an Apple Lisa, the computer that pre-dated the Apple Mac, iPhone and iPad revolutions.

He attended the all-male grammar school, Lincoln School and then the University of Birmingham where he studied Law, graduating in 1966. Fatchett joined the Labour Party in 1964. At the LSE he took an MSc in 1968 where he joined in student demonstrations. He was more left-wing in his younger days in the 60s and 70s but moved towards the centre-left when an MP, leaving the Campaign Group in 1985.
