In bio's of politicians is it normal to refer to them by their given names? It reads as though it was written by one of her friends or admirers (and probably was). <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 13:43, 31 May 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:: Disagree. '''Virginia Bottomley, Baroness Bottomley''' is best compromise as her title is inherently linked to her political existence, unlike, say ] or ]. ] 12:41, 22 March 2014 (UTC) |

::::::If a politician spent much of their career as a member of the House of Lords it is appropriate to have the peerage in the title, but Bottomley's notable political career was as a member of the Commons and she received the peerage on stepping down. This is consistent with the examples in ] of politicians who are not at their peerage titles (], ]). ] <small>(])</small> 09:54, 23 March 2014 (UTC) |

::::::The exception is for "Peers who are very well known by their personal names and who only received a title after they retired", it is not exclusively for prime ministers.

==Jeremy Hunt cousin rumour== |
|
|
|
|
|
The claim that ] is a cousin seems false. Roland Charles Colin Hunt was the son of Colin and Dorothea Hunt, Sir ] was the son of John Montgomerie Hunt and Elizabeth Yates. Internet rumours claim Roland Charles Colin Hunt and Sir ] were brothers and that's why Virginia Bottomley and Jeremy Hunt must be cousins, but I see no evidence to back up this claim. ] (]) 02:52, 21 May 2016 (UTC) |
