LORD DENNING AND MARGARET THATCHER, LAW AND SOCIETY
Main Article Content
Abstract
“Lord Denning is the best-known and best-loved judge in the whole of our history.” That was the opening of Lord Bingham’s address at the service of thanksgiving for the life of Lord Denning, the former Master of the Rolls, in Westminster Abbey in 1999. Lord Bingham was well-placed to judge. He himself held the offices of Master of the Rolls, Lord Chief Justice and Senior Law Lord. He is an accomplished historian. He ascribed Lord Denning’s renown and reputation to his unique warmth, his popular touch and his longevity. Tom Denning was born in the Victorian era, in 1899, and lived a few weeks beyond his 100th birthday in 1999. He only retired at the age of 82 and then reluctantly.
