Robert Jenrick has revealed that his daughter is named after former Conservative prime minister Margaret Tatcer.
During an interview on the main stage of the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham on Tuesday (1 October), the former immigration minister said he thought it would be a “good way of reminding her of a great prime minister.”
Asked what his daughter’s middle name is, Mr Jenrick responded: “You’re embarrassing her now.
“It is Margaret Thatcher”, he joked, adding: “No, it’s not, it’s ‘Thatcher’. She was born the year Margaret Thatcher died.”
