Joseph Batey (4 March 1867 – 21 February 1949) was a Labour Party politician in the United Kingdom.
Batey became a coal miner, before winning election as a checkweighman, and then becoming a full-time official for the Durham Miners' Association. A support of the Labour Party, Batey served on the South Shields Town Council and Board of Guardians.[1]
He was elected at the 1922 election as Member of Parliament (MP) for the Spennymoor constituency in County Durham, which he had contested unsuccessfully at the 1918 election.[1] Batey held the seat until he resigned from the House of Commons on 6 July 1942, by the procedural device of accepting the post of Steward of the Manor of Northstead.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
