Twelve British Prime Ministers have cut their teeth and honed their skills in our Debating Chamber, five of whom were also officers of the Society: our first was William Ewert Gladstone, and our most recent Tony Blair. David Cameron, Leader of the Opposition, is also a member, most recently addressing the Society in Trinity Term (Summer) 2008. We frequently play host to in excess of twelve Heads of State per year, not to mention countless actors, writers, film stars, musicians, celebrities and politicians.
