Stephen Norrington (Napoleon's World)

 Paul Stephen Norrington (born 1929) was an English politician and humanitarian prior to his retirement, serving as the MP for Waverly from 1960 to 1990, a 30-year time of service. From 1981 to 1988 he was the leader of the Whig Party, a period in which he was Prime Minister from 1984 to 1987 and twice led the opposition, from 1981 to 1984 and 1987 until he resigned from party leadership in 1988. He is often compared to his contemporary political adversary, John Oliver, with whom he shared a friendly rivalry and was in fact quite close with in a personal capacity.

Norrington's father, Edward, was a general under England's Socialist government and was briefly the leader of the country in 1950 after the military staged a coup to attempt to maintain order in the country, but was assassinated. Norrington served in the Socialist Army of England and the English Republican Army during the Anarchy and is the only Prime Minister of the Republic to not have attended a university.
