David Blatherwick (diplomat)

... that in May 1981 David Blatherwick advised the British Prime Minister on how to respond to criticism following the deaths of hunger strikers in Northern Ireland?

Comment: This is my first time at DYK so I don't think I know the process well enough to do a review. I didn't even get the bolding right in the hook.[1]
Comment: I have had a go at reviewing Taftanaz but as I am not sure how much leeway you are allowed with DYK articles I may have been a little harsh. A second opinion on the review would be welcome - I'll flag it for another reviewer to take a look once the nominator provides feedback.

Looks solid: new enough, long enough, interesting hook, referenced and well formatted. Paraphrasing checks against FN 2 and 8 show no issues. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:12, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
