DEATH OF A CAD.

Sara Keays

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sara Keays (pron. "Keys", born 1 June 1947) was the personal secretary of British Conservative politician Cecil Parkinson. The two became lovers, and Keays' public revelation of her pregnancy and of their twelve-year-long affair led to his resignation as Secretary of State for Trade and Industry in the government of Margaret Thatcher.[1]

Parkinson's resignation

Parkinson was forced to resign on 14 October 1983 after it was revealed that Sara was bearing his child, Flora Keays. Subsequently, as a result of a dispute over child maintenance payments, Parkinson (with Keays' initial consent) was able to gain an injunction in 1993, forbidding the British media from making any reference to their daughter.
At the time of the revelation of Parkinson's relationship with Sara Keays in 1983, Parkinson made much of what he described as the volume of supportive letters which he had received. Keays was attacked by many in the Tory party, such as Edwina Currie, who branded Keays "a cow" for destroying Parkinson's ministerial career.[2] By 2001, however, the media focused more upon Flora and her difficulties than in protecting Parkinson's reputation, so more voices were raised in criticism of Parkinson.[3]
Keays published her own book about the controversy A Question of Judgement in 1985.

Daughter

Flora Keays (born 3 January 1984 in Merton, Greater London) has learning disabilities and Asperger syndrome, and had an operation to remove a brain tumour when she was four.
The court order was the subject of some controversy until its expiry when Flora Keays turned 18 at the end of 2001. It was noted in the press that Parkinson had never met her and presumably had no intention of doing so. While he had financially assisted with Flora's education and upkeep, it was publicly pointed out that he had never sent her a birthday card and that her mother assumed that Flora could never expect to receive one.[4]
In January 2002, Channel 4 broadcast a documentary film on Sara and Flora Keays.[5] In it Flora said: “I would like to see him. If he loved me, he would want to see me and be in my everyday life... I think my father has behaved very badly towards me. I feel jealous that my mother has known him but I haven’t, and jealous of other people who go on holiday with their fathers, when I don’t.” Sara Keays is shown telling her daughter that her father has never seen her because "he didn't want anything to do with us."
Sara Keays, who was forced to educate her daughter at home, and encouraged her in ballet, gymnastics, horse riding and trampolining, said Lord Parkinson's reappointment by William Hague as Tory party chairman caused the youngster problems when she finally secured a place at a secondary school: "It was torture for her. She was bullied, just because somebody thought it was necessary for him to have his job back, basically", she said.[6]
Speaking ahead of the film, Sara Keays angrily denied that she fell pregnant to trap her lover and attacked Downing Street and Conservative Central Office for conducting a "very powerful and all pervasive disinformation campaign" to discredit her at the time.[6]

The only promise Cecil Parkinson ever kept - never to see his daughter

Flora Keays, whose illegitimate birth forced her father to resign as Trade Secretary, has grown up in a secret world as a result of the court order that he obtained. But all that changed shen she became 18 on New Year's Eve

She was, until six days ago, the young woman who did not exist. Excised from school photographs, barred from class theatrical productions and left off the list of scholastic achievements displayed on her college noticeboard, Flora Keays has been forced, by law, to remain invisible. Until now, writes Olga Craig.
On New Year's Eve, Flora turned 18 and was, for the first time in her life, given a voice. Her first public words have made poignant reading.
Of Cecil Parkinson, the father she has never met, she said sadly: "I would like to see him. If he loved me, he would want to see me and be in my everyday life." Of her hopes for a relationship with him, her requests have been modest: "I would like to go to the cinema with him and have some fun."

"motherhood is wonderfull," said Miss Keays, 36, whose affair with former Trade and Industry Secretary forced his resignation. She gave birth tom their 8ib 3oz baby by Casarian section on New Year's Eve.

Yet it is only now that Flora, who was left with severe disabilities after an operation to remove a brain tumour 14 years ago and also has Asperger's syndrome - a form of autism - has been able to express her wishes.
The illegitimate daughter of Lord Parkinson, the former Tory party chairman once feted as a future Prime Minister and forced to resign as Trade Secretary when Sara Keays, his secretary and mistress, announced her pregnancy, Flora has been the subject of a court order which has silenced her.
But now, with its expiry, she is free to talk of her life. So, too, is her mother.
Sara Keays's story - her clandestine, 12-year-affair with a government minister; her refusal to fade into the background after making her pregnancy public; her struggle to support her disabled daughter and her dogged battle to win financial support from her former lover - has been the subject of speculation and intrigue for the past 18 years.
The court orders have meant that little has been known of the mother and daughter, save that Flora's birth was one of the biggest Westminster scandals of its generation - throwing the married father of three into disgrace and threatening to bring down Thatcher's government.
But as Sara contemplates yet another court battle with Parkinson to help pay for the care Flora still needs, she has allowed the world to glimpse what has, until now, been their very private world.
When Flora celebrated her coming of age, she did so with just a trace of hope. As she opened her birthday cards, she knew that there was little chance that, this year, for the first time, her father would acknowledge her birthday.
Even so, she hoped. There was no card and no present.

She said in an interview with the Daily Mail: "Mummy told me not to expect a card but I do feel a bit sad about it. I would like to see him and talk to him." 


— David Cameron (@David_Cameron) January 25, 2016
1/3 I am deeply saddened to learn of the death of Cecil Parkinson. He was one of the towering Conservative figures in the 1980s.
George Osborne also worked with him when he was party chairman in 1997 and praised him for being “there in our hour of greatest need”. 
Only not his daughter's, why would he be?
 
We cannot know  the hearts of others, maybe Parkinsion valued his first family over his second and made a difficult decision . We know, however, that he had proposed to Sara Keays and that after a twelve-year relationship it would be reasonable for her to believe him;  we know also that he and his Tory child molesting mates tried any number of dirty tricks to  slander the poor women and frighten her to death and we know, most damning of all, that the horrible fucking bastard was able to buy an injunction against his child's existence,  Cameron and Osborne's comments - and Hague's behaviour - are another watery shit in Decency's face.

Read his obit in the Filthograph, and it was a snow-job, as many commenters pointed out. He advanced because Maggie liked him, but I doubt he got his leg over with her.

Always came across as a lounge lizard, a bit like Field Marshal Lord Pantsdown.

And the truly terrible thing was that his minor, minor, minor indiscretion denied him the role of PM, which Whiky Maggie thought his destiny. And instead we got Johnny Underpants, the CurrieFucker. And elder fucking statesman, if you please.

Oh, if only we had an opposition, such fun it could have.

Mike said...

There you go, Mr I. In a paragraph you summed up why I packed my bags and left.

It truly is appaling to have to re-rememmber - underpants, the straight-kinda-guy, the Brown terror, and now ham face.

I despised Thatcher, Barbara Windsor with a degree or two, flirting archly with Evil the way Babs flirted with the Krays but she was, at least, a full-blown, certifiable derange-o-path; Major, on the other hand, really was the rise of the Mediocracy, appearing at first like Jimmy Carter, a decent man, a bit out of his depth but quickly revealing his true, suburban, wife-swapping ghastliness and corruptibility. But you forgot the best of them, Major's conquered Kinnock, the begetter of Mandelstein, Campbell, Snotty, Tony'n'Imelda; Kinnock and Baggage fleeing to Brussels, there to fiddle their expenses, then return and run their businesses from the House of Lords. Like good socialists do. I hope their arses fall out during the next Queen's speech and they trip over them, covering their ermine robes with shit and blood and intestines, the Kinnocks.

Mike said...

Its Australia Day here down under, today, and you've gone and ruined it by mentioning the Kinnocks. I'll have to watch that clip now, at least 5 times, when he fell in the sea, just to repair the mental damage.

call me ishmael said...

Sorry.They do sour the milk of human kindness, Neil and Glenys, moreso, strangely, than do Tony'n'Imelda, in whom none were disasppointed. The Kinnocks' pedigree was different, although, as it turned out their characters were identical. It's a stormy one o clock, here, and I'm for bed. Enjoy the Festival of the Transportees, good night.

Bleak comedy on the telly all day. What a bastard.

call me ishmael said...

There was something, I remember, about Sara's dad being the right stuff, and standing up to Cecil and Maggie's goon squad, but I couldn't find it in wiki, nor in the press.

Comedy's right, I lolled out loud at Cameron's eulogy, laughed like a bitter, crazy drain.

As I said, his walking away is one thing, but setting the heavies on her and injuncting the child's existence, that's pure barrowboy filth, that. No wonder the freak, Hague, loved him so.

mongoose said...

I think that that pre-internet injunction will probably have done its work.

call me ishmael said...

If the public record can so easily be amended and redacted, mr mongoose, the more important it is that we, in our small corners, remind.
Although I suppose that a mouse click in California would obliterate our every word. We outlive our time, perhaps.

SG said...

I seem to remember something about Sara's Dad too Mr I but maybe its just the power of suggestion. Damn memory banks ain't what they used to be!...

call me ishmael said...

No, it did happen, I do remember it happening, and admiring it, but I can't come up with a search term which reveals a press record, even though I could only have known of it from the broadsheets. It's dirty work afoot, mr sg.

mongoose said...

The magic search term is the gentleman's forename. "Hastings Keays" wrote to Maggie denouncing the bugger and did pretty much all he could do save birching him in the steps of Parliament.

This should do.

call me ishmael said...

Thanks, mr mongoose, that's good. I also liked "The Scotsman, The Gag Comes Off."

Bungalow Bill said...

Colonel Hastings Keays, he was the one to write to Thatcher to advise that Cecil was a cunt. They're all empty, calculating, humourless fuckers aren't they, the Tory Top Brass, always have been. Dead souls when they were alive: Willie, Leon,Cecil - Maggie's Round Table. That's why it's never been a leap to credit the tales of darker deeds casually done, because why would they not, such power-zombies, why would they not go as far as they possibly could? The wretched Flora got off lightly.

mongoose said...

"In January 1981, his [Paky's] car was stolen from outside her mews house in Southwark."

Well, well. Most unfortunate.

It is not through some odd coincidence that all these buffoons have to be addressed as Honourable Members.Though this is sullying the word Member.

call me ishmael said...

You should take a look, m alphons, at the Scottish assembly, in Holyrood, which is a vulgar version of Westminster; they call each other by name, not constituency, they bang the tables, applaud and cheer. They sit, also, differently, not opposed but in a tiered semi-circle/horseshoe/lecture theatre arrangement, planned, I think, to facilitate TeeVee cameras. No honourableness, there. Quite proply, in my view.

"They sit, also, differently, not opposed but in a tiered semi-circle/horseshoe/lecture theatre arrangement,..."

Is this anything to do with the war cry "......up yer kilt"
