Talk:Esther McVey

Untitled

There has been discussion off wikipedia as to why Ms McVey´s involvement with the effort to find Madeleine McCann was removed from the article, if this was significant to the entry and if the edit was an attempt to clean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deviljelly (talk • contribs) 15:34, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Esther McVey has recently lost her seat of the Wirral West constituency. She has described it as a "brutal campaign" and has said "I'm proud I was part of a government that was helping turn the country around." Ms. McVey also said: "What I want to do is go back to being a politician. I’m coming back - I want to be an MP." Esther lost to Labour candidate Margaret Greenwood, who won, by a marginal 417 votes (1% difference).

Even though she has left parliament and is no longer an MP, she still retains the title of The Right Honourable before her name, so I was wondering can someone please read it! 194.60.38.24 (talk) 09:49, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

I don't believe she does. She isn't in the Lords, isn't a dame and isn't on the privy counsel GimliDotNet (talk) 16:53, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. -- Orduin ^Discuss 18:29, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

I have just looked at Esther Mcvey's article and it clearly states that she is a member of the Privy Council, with sources provided, which thereby entitles her to 'The Right Honourable' for life, regardless of whether she is an MP or not! So I agree that it should be added 85.133.27.108 (talk) 20:48, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Grammar error

There's a grammar error here:

Following her appointment there was a claim that supporters of Jeremy Corbyn began a "renewed a vicious hate campaign", though no evidence was offered to substantiate it.[25]

Phillip Davies

Davies is currently McVey's partner and they're intending on getting married. Please research if this is not believed.--194.80.232.22 (talk) 18:50, 21 March 2018 (UTC) Please provide a reliable (i.e. not tabloid) source for this before adding it to the article. Absolutelypuremilk (talk) 16:25, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

The Sunday Times source in the article now confirms that they are partnered. This has been common knowledge for a while now and there are numerous RSes to back this up. --Bangalamania (talk) 16:18, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

McVey's new role

This article lists McVey's new role at MHCLG as being "Minister of State for Housing and Planning", but MHCLG has only gone so far as to describe her as "Minister of State" - what is the source for this title? The same applies to the linked article "Minister of State for Housing and Planning". Cheers Dotdotdotcomma (talk) 16:45, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
