David Lambert (1933 – 2023)

The letter from Keir Starmer that came just in time

September 2023  Many people who make an outstanding contribution to, for example, Politics, the Government, the Arts or Industry, get offered an Honour in public recognition, and the late David Lambert was no exception.  He declined the offer : a private man, his reward was the work that he did and he said he just didn’t want the fuss.  Shortly before he passed away this year, aged 89, something happened which probably meant just as much to him.  A letter arrived from Sir Keir Starmer.
