  • The Yorkshire Town That's Gone from Dirty Old Buildings to New Age Nirvana | the Spectator
    The Yorkshire town thatʼs gone from dirty old buildings to New Age nirvana | The Spectator 27/09/2018, 20�59 The Yorkshire town that’s gone from dirty old buildings to New Age nirvana William Cook From dirty old town... to New Age nirvana Bernard Ingham once told a story about a reporter from the Financial Times who went to cover an election in Ingham’s hometown of Hebden Bridge. The reporter went into a café and ordered a cappuccino. ‘Nay lad,’ said the waitress. ‘You’ll have to go to Leeds for that.’ Ingham told that story to illustrate the no-nonsense attitudes of the rugged town he grew up in — attitudes that shaped the man who became Margaret Thatcher’s muscular press secretary. So it’s wonderfully ironic that Hebden Bridge is now full of fair trade craft shops and vegan cafés.

  • The Religious Mind of Mrs Thatcher
    The Religious Mind of Mrs Thatcher Antonio E. Weiss June 2011 The religious mind of Mrs Thatcher 2 ------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT Addressing a significant historical and biographical gap in accounts of the life of Margaret Thatcher, this paper focuses on the formation of Mrs Thatcher’s religious beliefs, their application during her premiership, and the reception of these beliefs. Using the previously unseen sermon notes of her father, Alfred Roberts, as well as the text of three religious sermons Thatcher delivered during her political career and numerous interviews she gave speaking on her faith, this paper suggests that the popular view of Roberts’ religious beliefs have been wide of the mark, and that Thatcher was a deeply religious politician who took many of her moral and religious beliefs from her upbringing. In the conclusion, further areas for research linking Thatcher’s faith and its political implications are suggested. Throughout this paper, hyperlinks are made to the Thatcher Foundation website (www.margaretthatcher.org) where the sermons, speeches, and interviews that Margaret Thatcher gave on her religious beliefs can be found. The religious mind of Mrs Thatcher 3 ------------------------------------------- INTRODUCTION ‘The fundamental reason of being put on earth is so to improve your character that you are fit for the next world.’1 Margaret Thatcher on Today BBC Radio 4 6 June 1987 Every British Prime Minister since the sixties has claimed belief in God. This paper will focus on just one – Margaret Thatcher. In essence, five substantive points are argued here which should markedly alter perceptions of Thatcher in both a biographical and a political sense.

His interest in it throughout its development continues to fatter me. Likewise I am indebted to the Government Communication Service who have overseen the book’s production, especially Rebecca Trelfall and Amelie Gericke. Te latter has been a model of eficiency and patience when it has come to arranging meetings, ordering materials and reading every draft and redraft of the text over the last few months. I am also grateful for the efforts of Gabriel Milland – lately of the GCS – that laid much of the groundwork for the volume. However, I would never even have set foot in the Cabinet Ofice had Tom Kelsey of the Historians in Residence programme at King’s College London not put my name forward. I am also hugely grateful to numerous other people at King’s and within the wider University of London. In particular the contemporary historians of the Department of Political Economy – among them my doctoral supervisors Michael Kandiah and Keith Hamilton – and those associated with the International History Seminar of the Institute of Historical Research (IHR) – Michael Dockrill, Matthew Glencross, Kate Utting as well as many others – have been a constant source of advice and encouragement.

  • House of Lords
    HOUSE OF LORDS Thursday 12th June 2008 Politics and the media - better or worse in the last 50 years By the Rt Hon Baroness Jay of Paddington I am honoured to conclude this distinguished series of lectures organised by the Lord Speaker and Queen Mary’s College, University of London where my old friend Professor Peter Hennessey – has, in my view, done more to enhance our understanding of recent British history than anyone else writing today. It is a particular honour to be introduced by the Lord Speaker, and I would like to pay tribute to Helene Hayman’s energy and imagination in arranging this programme and taking many other initiatives to increase general awareness of the contemporary work of the House of Lords. It is hard to remember that the position of the Lord Speaker is still less than two years old! In this short time Baroness Hayman has done so much to establish an important role in public life, and this occasion which celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first women life peers is a good opportunity to congratulate her. Previous speakers in the series have been experts in their field but I think it would be hard for anyone to claim unrivalled specialist knowledge of my topic – “politics and the media over the last 50 years”. But, no doubt, everyone in the room has strong opinions on the subject, everyone always has! My own opinions have been formed by my personal history. 2008 is the golden jubilee of the Life Peerages Act, it is also the golden jubilee of my arrival at Oxford University where I began a career in student journalism - eventually achieving the glittering prize of deputy to David Dimbleby as editor of the undergraduate magazine “isis”.
