John Edward Hollister Montagu, 11th Earl of Sandwich (born 11 April 1943), is a British entrepreneur, politician and nobleman . He has sat in the House of Lords on the crossbenches since 1995.
Biography
Lord Sandwich is the eldest son of Victor Montagu , who disclaimed the Earldom of Sandwich in 1964, and his first wife Rosemary Maud (née Peto). He succeeded his father to the earldom in 1995 and is one of the ninety elected hereditary peers that remain in the House of Lords after the passing of the House of Lords Act 1999 . He sits as a crossbencher and speaks mainly on international development and asylum issues.
Lord Sandwich was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge .
Reflecting the fame of one of his ancestors, The 4th Earl of Sandwich (after whom the sandwich was named in the 18th century), the current Lord Sandwich licensed the use of his title for a chain of sandwich shops, Earl of Sandwich . These are located in various parts of the United States , including Disney Springs Marketplace in Walt Disney World Resort , under an agreement chiefly with Robert Earl , founder of the Planet Hollywood chain.
Marriage and children
Lord Sandwich married (Susan) Caroline Hayman, daughter of The Reverend Canon Perceval Hayman,[ 1] on 1 July 1968. She is a former business journalist and policy expert at the European Commission , specialising in the Middle East . She is a committee member of a number of organisations promoting links with the region, including the Saudi British Society, and is a senior adviser for Women in Business International. She is also active in a number of organisations in Dorset , including the Heritage Lottery Fund 's South West Committee and the Beaminster Festival, and serves as President of the Dorset Natural History & Archaeological Society.[ 2]
