Other notable officeholders

edit

The 3rd Marquess of Salisbury was Union Secretary in Michaelmas 1848.

Harold Macmillan was Secretary of the Union in Hilary 1914, then Junior Treasurer (elected unopposed, which was then very unusual) in Trinity 1914; but for the war he would "almost certainly" have been President.[155]

S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike was Treasurer in Trinity 1924.[156]

Humayun Kabir was Librarian in 1931.[156]

Roy Jenkins served as Librarian and Secretary and lost two Presidential elections.[157][158]

Norman St John-Stevas was Secretary of the Oxford Union but never became President despite his ambition to be the first person to be President of both Oxford and Cambridge Unions; he had been President of the Cambridge Union during his undergraduate years, before he studied at Oxford.[159]

Ann Widdecombe was Treasurer in 1972, after having served as Secretary the previous year.[160][161]

Jacob Rees-Mogg was Librarian in 1990, losing the election for the presidency to future Education Secretary Damian Hinds.[162]

In fiction

edit
  • Simon Kerslake (early 1950s), protagonist of the Jeffrey Archer novel First Among Equals invites sitting Prime Minister Winston Churchill to propose the motion during Eights Week that "This House Would Rather be a Commoner than a Lord". His future rival, The Hon. Charles Seymour listens from the floor and resolves to enter politics also.[163] Archer himself was elected to Standing Committee for one term in 1965.[164]
