Emily Anne Thornberry (born 27 July 1960) is a British Labour Party politician who has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Islington South and Finsbury since 2005. Thornberry served as Shadow Attorney General from 2011 until her resignation on 20 November 2014. Her marriage to The Hon Mr Justice Nugee makes her formally styled Lady Nugee MP, but she does not use the title. ==Before Parliament== Thornberry was born in north Surrey to Cedric Thornberry, a Visiting Professor of War Studies at King's College London, and his wife Sallie Thornberry, a teacher. Her parents divorced when Thornberry was aged seven and she and her two brothers lived with her mother who later became a Labour councillor and mayor. Her father went on to become a United Nations Assistant Secretary General and worked as a consultant for NATO. She was educated at the University of Kent at Canterbury where she studied Law. She went on to practice as a barrister specialising in Human Rights law from 1985 to 2005 under Michael Mansfield QC at Tooks Chambers. Thornberry joined the Transport and General Workers Union in 1985. In the late 1980s she became a friend of Waheed (now Lord) Alli, and persuaded him to join the Labour Party. 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「Emily Thornberry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
