Talk:Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 5th Marquess of Salisbury

Oh, so he would still have been in the Commons in TBS. I thought he'd always been a peer.

He will likely never be a peer now, will he? New creations are generally done on the recommendation of one's Party leader, and plotting against said leader doesn't endear oneself.

Which raises the question, was he born Gascoyne-Cecil, and Cranmore was the name of his viscount title? And if so, was he not created Viscount Cranmore till 1941? If yes and yes, I'm afraid we've got another inconsistency.

And getting back to the party leader thing, I wonder if it's significant that all the MPs Walsh has met are Conservatives. You'd think Opposition MPs would be involved in something like this, wouldn't you? Turtle Fan 15:08, July 27, 2011 (UTC)
