Norman Beresford Tebbit, Baron Tebbit (born 29 March 1931) is a British politician who served as Chairman of the Conservative Party from 2 September 1985 to 13 June 1987.
Portrayal[]
Tebbit was caricatured as a leather clad skinhead, who primarily served as Margaret Thatcher's enforcer and one of her most loyal MPs. He would always refer to her as 'Leader', and would physically abuse her cabinet members in order to keep them in line.
Norman Tebbit himself has said he enjoyed his portrayal on the show, and while his wife didn't, his children found it funny. In the 2007 documentary "Best Ever Spitting Image", he said he was very fond of his portrayal.
