Captain Moonlight: Who's Who
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.MUCH muttering about the usefulness and reliability of Who's Who as a reference source, given the failure yet again by Baroness Thatcher to mention her mother. The missing mother has been endlessly amateur-analysed; what seems to have gone unnoticed is Sir Denis's failure in his entry to mention his first wife - the first Margaret - Margaret Kempson, later Lady Hickman. Sir Denis's first marriage lasted from 1942 to 1946. The marriage has been described as a wartime mistake and the divorce as amicable. He met the second Margaret in 1949 and married her in 1951. Just thought I'd mention it.
