Talk:Anthony Berry

message: Further to the comments above now made several years ago, I've been attempting to expand this article over the last few days. I added a section on his career (though that just briefly covers his political career) and some details about the 25th anniversary ceremony where Lady Sarah Berry and their daughter Sasha unveiled a plaque in Sir Anthony's memory. There's still a lot of missing information though. Some things which need to be included are;
*Education - schooling, university, qualifications, etc.
*Any military service - who he served with and any campaigns he was involved in (he would have been the right age to have served in the latter part of World War 2).
*Early career - career before entering politics.
*More on his political career. Did he serve in Heath's government for example?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks TheRetroGuy (talk) 14:06, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

message: In the first paragraph under his death, it says "He was survived by his wife, Lady Berry..." unless there is a usage of the word survived that I don't know of, this is grammatically incorrect, and the sentence doesn't make much sense so a revision of this sentence would be nice.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.83.69.41 (talk) 18:37, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  A confusing sentence 

message: It says here, with reference to a cited source that "At the time of his death he was Deputy Chief Whip in Thatcher's government". While I have often seen this claim made,  it does not seem to be correct. He had indeed held this office in the past, but had ceased to hold it in the wake of the Government reshuffle following the 1983 United Kingdom general election. The position was at the time, as it often is, identical with the office of Treasurer of the Household which as noted here Berry ceased to hold in 1983 when he was replaced by John Cope, Baron Cope of Berkeley. The article covering the Government after the 1983 election - Second Thatcher ministry - does not list Berry as holding any office in the Government. The Glasgow Herald report of the Brighton bombing on 13 October 1984 specifically states Berry was "former Deputy Chief Whip". Thus I think it is clear that this is an unintentional, if oft repeated error, and while I appreciate it is source, I think it should nonetheless be changed for accuracy.
