Sir John Stanley is a Conservative MP.
Northern Ireland
Stanley served as a Minister of State in the Northern Ireland Office from 13 June 1987 to 25 July 1988.[1]
According to journalist W.D. Flackes and political scientist Sydney Elliott:
- his move to Stormont was variously interpreted as heralding a tougher security policy, a gesture to unionists still furious at the AIA [Anglo-Irish Agreement], and as providing an 'eyes and ears' for Thatcher in the Stormont scene.[2]
