Julian Amery

British politician

1919 – 1996aged 77

A British Conservative politician who held a House of Commons seat for 39 of the 42 years between 1950 and 1992, serving in Cabinet and becoming a leading figure in the Conservative Monday Club before retiring to the House of Lords. He built his political career in the shadow of his father-in-law, Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, and of his own brother John, executed for treason in 1945 for wartime collaboration with Nazi Germany — a family history Julian's decades of loyal parliamentary service stood apart from.
