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.
 * 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.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg 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)
