Michael James Hugh Alison (27 June 1926 – 28 May 2004)[1] was a British Conservative politician.
Born in Margate, Kent,[2] Alison was educated at Eton College; Wadham College, Oxford; and Ridley Hall, Cambridge. During the Second World War, he served in the Coldstream Guards. He was a councillor on Kensington Borough Council from 1956 to 1959 and a research worker on foreign affairs at the Conservative Research Department from 1958 to 1964.
He served as Member of Parliament for Barkston Ash from the 1964 general election until that constituency was abolished for the 1983 general election,[3] and then for the constituency of Selby which replaced it, from 1983 until he stood down at the 1997 general election.[3]
He held various junior ministerial posts under Margaret Thatcher, including serving as her Parliamentary Private Secretary (1983–87) and as a Minister of State (Northern Ireland Office 1979–81, Department of Employment 1981–83). For ten years from 1987 he was the Second Church Estates Commissioner.[4]
Family
In 1958 he married Sylvia Haigh, with whom he had two sons and a daughter. His son, James, is a noted Christian theologian and advocate of the acceptance of LGBTIQA+ people in the Church.[5]
