Talk:Michael Ancram

message: I corrected the line:
In 2001 he stood against Iain Duncan Smith, Michael Portillo, Kenneth Clarke and David Davies for the party leadership...
The other Conservative who stood against Ancram and IDS was David Davis (The MP for Haltemprice & Howden) and not David Davies, the AM for Monmouth.

Does he still go by "Michael Ancram," or is he now called "Michael Lothian" or some such thing? -- Emsworth 22:11, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: There's been no change when his name has been reported in the media since the death of his father AFAIK. Mintguy (T) 22:21, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: I believe he's still going by "Michael Ancram", since he's so well known by that name. (He has no sons, so there's no problem with the heir wanting to use "Earl of Ancram" as a courtesy title.) A shame, I think. If the Tories get into power soon, he'd be the first Marquess in a Cabinet in a while, though, I should think, which would be nice. Proteus (Talk) 22:25, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah; since Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 5th Marquess of Salisbury under Harold Macmillan, in fact. At least, that's what I could discern... ugen64 02:58, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Lord Cranborne (now 7th Marquess of Salisbury) was in Major's cabinet, but not yet a marquess. john k 19:35, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

text: According to the Parliament's official biography, his name is Michael Kerr, not Michael Ancram. Thomas Blomberg (talk) 09:59, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

text: I think it would be fitting to move the article to his real name Michael Kerr 13th Marquess of Lothian with redirects from Michael Ancram. Anderson Rawls (talk) 13:27, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Name

message: The article seems to contradict itself. At one point of the article it states that he was born in London yet in another it states that he was born in Scotland. Please correct the page.

thread_title:  Birthplace 

message: The article currently includes the unsourced statement that he was Deputy Leader from 2001 to 2005, but The Telegraph says that "Neither Michael Howard nor Iain Duncan Smith had [a deputy]". Is there a source available that can support the statement? If not I will remove the references to Deputy Leader. Road Wizard (talk) 20:05, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
