  Alastair Campbell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Campbell was the son of a veterinarian who was of Scottish origin, but was working in Keighley at the time of his son's birth.
Campbell intervened personally to complain whenever media outlets ran stories he felt were unhelpful to the campaign, and was not afraid to attack journalists personally when they displeased him.
Campbell's control of the traditional Lobby System under which a select group of accredited journalists were given privileged access to the Prime Minister's spokesman (and the journalistic kudos that this access could bring) meant that he wielded a good deal of power over the media, as previous Press Secretaries had found.

 Otis M Poole Life
Tony's devoted baby-amah, Old Mine, the daughter of a Sugita fisherman, brought up several foreign children, and being now over fifty, her kind, honest face reassembled an old ivory "netsuke"; but never was there a more loving and gentle soul.
Tony had always been of an artistic temperament and besides drawing and painting with unusual ability was naturally musical and by the time he was twelve or thirteen played the piano with an appealing touch and sensitivity.
Tony came to feel, however, that he needed travel and more mature experience as a springboard for a literary career and turned his attention in college to studies that would be more helpful in a commercial career.

 British leader Blair's spinmeister resigns
Campbell sought to still any speculation that his resignation was related to a current high-profile inquiry into whether the government communications machine that he led exaggerated the Iraqi weapons threat.
Campbell's departure leaves Blair without the cabal of close aides who helped him refashion the Labor Party into the socialism-free New Labor and proclaimed an approach to governing that combined social welfare reform and economic discipline in a mix they ambitiously called the Third Way.
Campbell said that another reason he was leaving now was that his partner and the mother of his three children, Fiona Millar, was giving up her job as the personal aide to Blair's wife, Cherie, at the same time.
