During the United Kingdom general election in 1983 an interesting name change took place.
In May 1983 Mr Colin Hanoman changed his name to Margaret Thatcher and, on the same date, Mr Simon Stansfeld changed his name to Ronald Regan.
Subsequently, on May 23, Mr Thatcher personally submitted nomination papers to the returning officer for the Finchley constituency with himself as candidate and Mr Regan as agent. His description was “Conservationist Party”.
