==Early life and education==
Straw was born in Lambeth in 1980. His parents are Alice Perkins and Jack Straw. He attended the comprehensive Pimlico School. In 1997 aged 17, he was caught trying to sell £10 of cannabis after a friend was paid £2,000 by the ''Daily Mirror'' to introduce him to an undercover reporter posing as an acquaintance. The story caused some embarrassment for his father, who was Home Secretary at the time.
He went to Oxford University where he read Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE)〔http://www.standard.co.uk/news/baby-labour-6708602.html〕 and was elected President of the Junior Common Room of New College and the Oxford University Student Union in 2001. In 2001, he and several other OUSU campaigners protested against tuition fees on the steps of Oxford's Bodleian Library by throwing off most of their clothes to reveal gold-painted torsos. After Oxford, he read for a master's degree in public administration as a Fulbright Scholar at Columbia University.
