Thea Rogers was hired as one of the Chancellor George Osborne's special advisers in 2012. The move followed the departure of his long-serving aide Poppy Mitchell-Rose. [1]
Osborne hired Rogers, a former producer for BBC political editor Nick Robinson, to 'manage' and 'improve his image'. [2] She is credited – how justly cannot be said – 'with changing the Chancellor’s voice, hair and smile'. [3] [4]
Background
Rogers gained her expertise as a former BBC political producer. [5]
