John Anthony Dyson, Lord Dyson[n 1] MR (born 31 July 1943) is the Master of the Rolls and Head of Civil Justice, the second most senior judge in England and Wales. He was previously a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom from 2010 to 2012. He was the first justice, after Lord Clarke of Stone-cum-Ebony, to be appointed directly to that court, and the first not to be a peer. However, by Royal Warrant, like all future appointees, he is styled "Lord Dyson" for life.

Paul Lewis receives his Honorary Degree at the University of Essex

Paul Lewis is a British journalist at The Guardian best known for his award-winning investigation of the death of Ian Tomlinson at the 2009 G-20 summit protests in London. Lewis joined the Guardian as a trainee in 2005, and was Stern Fellow at the Washington Post in 2007.[1] In August 2010 Lewis became head of the Guardian's "multimedia special projects team" which aims to find "new angles on breaking news stories, including using multimedia and crowdsourcing".[1]
Lewis was named "Reporter of the Year" in 2010 at the British Press Awards[2] for his work exposing details of the death of Ian Tomlinson at the 2009 G-20 summit protests. This work was also recognised with the Bevins Prize (2009) for outstanding investigative journalism.[1][3] The Bevins Trust said of his investigation:[3]
Paul uncovered the truth by persistently questioning and challenging the police account, by following up on the family, and assiduously garnering eye-witness evidence, until finally he obtained incontrovertible video evidence from a bystander who filmed the incident. In achieving this Paul used every method now available to a modern journalist, online and in print, to keep pushing and nudging at the story until he established what had really happened. His work led to internal and independent police inquiry, extensive and international public comment, and has changed the way police behave in potential riot situations, and how they receive and investigate complaints into such incidents. All in all, his story was a triumph for the assertion of civil liberty, as well as a revelation about policing conduct.

Lucy Kellaway

Columnist[edit]

After initially working at the Investors Chronicle,[4] she has worked for the FT since 1985, where she wrote the Monday column "Lucy Kellaway on Management". Some years later, a satirical column purporting to be the emails of Martin Lukes, a senior manager in a company called A&B (later expensively re-branded to a-b glöbâl) would appear on Thursdays.[4] It was revealed in 2005 that these were written by Kellaway (see below).
She currently writes the "Dear Lucy" column,[5] in which she adopts the point of view of a business agony aunt in response to letters sent by readers. She participates on the social messaging platform Twitter.[6]

Author[edit]

She wrote the management book Sense and Nonsense in the Office in 1999.
Her second book was a satirical novel in emails: Martin Lukes: Who Moved My BlackBerry (July 2005).
"Martin Lukes stands for every male manager trying to scramble to the top of the greasy pole. He is driven by ambition. He has little self-doubt—and even less self-knowledge. He thinks of himself as highly emotionally intelligent but has no idea how he is coming across. He is hungry for money, but more hungry for recognition. He wants people to love him and to be dazzled by his ability to "think outside the square," yet the ideas he comes up with are phony and pedestrian. He is a shameless player of the political game who manages by being a world-class brownnoser to disguise the fact that his native abilities are not quite as world-class as he would like."[7]
On the launch of a redesigned FT in April 2007, the editor listed Kellaway (and Lukes) as the second of five key items of unique content as reasons for reading the FT.[8] The Answers: All the office questions you never dared to ask was published in paperback in late 2007.
In 2010, Kellaway published the novel In Office Hours. The book focused on the ill-advised love affairs of two women working for a large oil company. Like much of Kellaway's work, it focused on office mores, but also displayed an emotional range that surprised some readers who were more used to the pure parody of Martin Lukes. In Office Hours was serialised on BBC Radio 4's Book at Bedtime and described as ""funny, truthful and cracking satire" by The Sunday Times. It was favourably reviewed in The Observer.[9]

Other activities and honours[edit]

In 2006 she was appointed a non-executive director of the insurance company Admiral Group. In 2013, she presented the History of Office Life for BBC Radio 4, a series of ten daily 15-minute programmes. Kellaway is a regular contributor to the BBC World Serviceprogramme Business Daily.[10]
On 20 July 2012, she was awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the University of Essex.[11]
