University

Barrow did not attend Warwick University - someone seems to have misunderstood his time at Warwick School. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:41, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Removed again a restored incorrect reference to him studying at the University of Warwick which cited an incorrect source in a Russian newspaper. The paper had probably mistranslated “Warwick School”. NB following his appointment as the UK's new ambassador to the EU several UK newspapers also incorrectly claimed that he studied at the University of Warwick probably sourcing that information from the incorrect information which was then on this Wikipedia page.

His Excellency?

This article shows Sir Tim has the style of His Excellency (HE) - so does the appointment as the UK's National Security Adviser entitle Sir Tim to the style of His Excellency (HE)? He had this style whilst a serving Ambassador, but I can not find anywhere that confirm this for the NSA role (which I appreciate is a similar level). Former Ambassadors do not use this style in the UK, even as a courtesy... so not sure why this this style is being used for Sir Tim. 2A02:C7C:A8DB:4D00:ECB5:EF3E:836C:9A97 (talk) 00:57, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
