  Charles Cavendish Fulke Greville - LoveToKnow 1911
CHARLES CAVENDISH FULKE GREVILLE (1794-1865), English diarist, a great-grandson by his father of the 5th earl of Warwick, and son of Lady Charlotte Bentinck, daughter of the duke of Portland, formerly a leader of the Whig party, and first minister of the crown, was born on the 2nd of April 1794.
Greville entered upon the discharge of the duties of clerk of the council in ordinary in 1821, and continued to perform them for nearly forty years.
Greville published anonymously, in 1845, a volume on the Past and Present Policy of England to Ireland, in which he advocated the payment of the Roman Catholic clergy; and he was also the author of several pamphlets on the events of his day.

Greville, though technically a politician (serving as clerk to the Privy Council), was the grandson of a duke, with a private income, and was able to look at the bear garden that was Westminster, not to mention Buckingham House and Balmoral, from a position of Olympian detachment.
Technically Greville was a Whig but his capacious understanding of the term is a reminder that he came of political age in the decade before party machinery and discipline got properly under way.
Greville was cautiously in favour of a measure that would widen the franchise to include the better sort of the middling classes.

 Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online
The diarist Charles Cavendish Fulke Greville described him as “the greatest coxcomb I ever saw, and the vainest dog.” Certainly Thomson aped the manners of the aristocracy.
In the House of Commons, according to one critic, Thomson was looked upon as a “bore”; his voice was “thin and effeminate” and his personal appearance “characteristic of a barber’s apprentice.” He rarely spoke on the “exciting party questions of the day,” his brother Scrope noted, and his speeches on commercial matters were considered dogmatic.

Among the numerous memoir-writers proper of the century, there can be no doubt that, notwithstanding the habit of self-depreciation, at times truly pathetic, to which his fastidious and complicated nature was secretly prone, Charles Cavendish Fulke Greville bears away the palm.

He retained this seat until he died in London, leaving behind him, so Charles Greville says, a memory cherished for his delightful social qualities and a vast credit for undeveloped powers.
An eager reformer and a friend of John Stuart Mill, Buller voted for the great Reform Bill, favored other progressive measures, and presided over the committee on the state of the records and the one appointed to inquire into the state of election law in Ireland in 1836.
