Andrew Simon Feldman, Baron Feldman of Elstree (born 25 February 1966) is a British barrister, businessman and Conservative fundraiser and politician. ''The Financial Times'' described Feldman as "David Cameron's oldest political friend" since their days together at Brasenose College, Oxford.〔(David Cameron: the verdict so far ), March 8, 2012, Financial Times, George Parker〕 Feldman was responsible for fundraising David Cameron's successful Tory leadership campaign in 2005. He was created a life peer by David Cameron in 2010, and since then Chairman of the Conservative Party, first as Co-Chairman alongside Sayeeda Warsi and then Grant Shapps between 2010 and 2015, then on his own as sole Chairman from May 2015. ==Early life and family== He was born into a Jewish family in London, the son of Malcolm and Marcia Feldman.〔"(FELDMAN OF ELSTREE )", Who's Who, online edition, 2013, A & C Black. Accessed 27 May 2013.〕 He married Gabrielle Gourgey in 1999; they have two sons and one daughter. They live in a townhouse in Holland Park, just round the corner from David Cameron's pre-Downing Street family home in Notting Hill." Feldman was educated at The Haberdashers' Aske's Boys' School, an independent school in Elstree in Hertfordshire, followed by Brasenose College at the University of Oxford, where he was awarded a first-class degree in Jurisprudence. He went on to the Inns of Court School of Law. Whilst at Oxford, he played for the Brasenose College tennis team, where he became friends with David Cameron and Guy Spier. Feldman and Cameron together helped organise the college's May Ball together in their second year. Feldman was chairman of the Ball committee, while Cameron booked the entertainment. Feldman has since remained a close confidant of Cameron's and the pair still play tennis together. They eventually became part of what was to be called the Notting Hill set. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andrew Feldman, Baron Feldman of Elstree」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
