Talk:Tessa Jowell

message: Jowell was at a house party, thrown by Rupert Murdoch's daughter, only days before the Millie Dowler phone hacking story hit the newspapers - as was her estranged husband, who she astutely attempted to distance herself from after he was found guilty of political corruption in Italy. (source http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2015563/Elisabeth-Murdoch-threw-party-Camerons-cronies-hours-beofre-Milly-Dowler-scandal.html), along with Mandelson and Rebekah Brooks. Who took the decision to allow her to stay in office after her husbands arrest, as they clearly never split up?     — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.42.225.164 (talk) 22:01, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Intimately Connected with Rebecca Brooks and NOTW  

message: The UK Government committed to the staggering costs of this event before revealing the extent of the national debt.  Was Tessa Jowell aware of our insolvency at the time?212.139.96.199 (talk) 22:07, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Olympics Cost

message: The last change is odd. Clearly something is in error here, as most sources say her maiden name was Mills, not Palmer. Which is correct? And her Number 10 biography says born London, not Aberdeen. Should the last change be reversed? 84.92.182.15 23:46, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: She apparently says born in London , and so do her official Bios:  . What's the source for Aberdeen? Rwendland 10:49, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

text: Interesting new bio info at , including "She moved to Aberdeen with her parents when she was a toddler" - supporting born in London info. Aberdeen newspaper says "graduated with an M.A from Aberdeen University in 1968"  (would be age 21).  Also "Tessa Jowell was born a hospital consultant's daughter" .
Lookls like London then, SqueakBox 13:52, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Lambeth Labour - duff link 

message: Tessa Jowell is most famous for being a British politician ... Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport and Minister for the Olympics, not for stammering a bit. It's really a very minor issue that does not deserve the prominence of being in the lead paragraph. The statement needs rewording and placing further down the article. It could also do with a reference, per the biographies of living persons and attribution policies. Thanks, →Ollie (talk • contribs) 17:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ums and ahs do not qualify as a speech impediment.  In addition, that section is poorly written.  I took a stab at it before deciding that I don't think it really even needs to be in the article.  But, since it's been discussed before, I elected not to pull it out.  I hope someone else will though.  Philippe Beaudette 22:03, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
