Former U.K. Politician and Thatcher Ally Norman Tebbit Passes Away at 94

Lord Norman Tebbit, a prominent figure during Margaret Thatcher's tenure as Prime Minister, died at 94. His son confirmed that he passed away at home, marking the end of a storied political career that began in Parliament and spanned over two decades. A known advocate for right-wing policies, Tebbit resigned from high office after a tragic IRA bombing left his wife severely wounded while he himself sustained injuries. He remained active in public life as a blogger and a member of the House of Lords until 2022, continuing to voice his strong opinions even in his later years. Michael Dobbs, a close associate, noted that Tebbit's frail health had made his passing a relief for both him and his family.

With his unwavering beliefs and significant contributions, Norman Tebbit will be remembered as a defining figure in British politics.
