Greg clark mp biography of abraham

  • Before being elected to Parliament in 2005, Clark spent four years as head of policy for the Tory party.
  • It is perhaps a disputed claim, but I think Abraham Darby, in 1709, was fairly early.
  • I've been 'doing abroad' all my life, living in 10 countries, as diplomat in business and in Parliament, working cross party with colleagues all.

    Greg Clark - Hansard - -

    May I welcome the hon. Lady to her first BEIS oral questions? I see her predecessor behind her. She is, I think, my third opposite number in the eight months that I have had this job. The first was appointed in the summer, the second in the autumn, and she was appointed in the winter. I noticed this week that the birds were singing and the sun was out, so I hope that is not bad news for the hon. Lady. On her points about the industrial strategy, the sector deals that we have proposed have been widely welcomed. We have set out a number of initial deals in, for example, life sciences and the creative industries. We are already talking to other sectors such as the steel sector, and a lot of colleagues in the House will want to see that taken forward.
