 * Complete rubbish. Churchill lost office in 1945.  His education ministers were Ramsbotham and Butler.  See Secretary of State for Education and Skills. Speedy Delete Emeraude 11:41, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:V, and from what Emeraude says, I'm thinking it may be a hoax. Anyone? Michael Billington (talk • contribs) 12:00, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete RA Butler was President of the Board of Education in the wartime coalition . Ken Night, if he existed, can only be a junior minister who history has forgotten.  Not notable, not verifiable.  I wonder if this article was created as a red line edit from Worksop College? QuiteUnusual 12:19, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I have checked Leigh Rayment's lists of peers and MPs, and can find no trace of anyone called Ken/Kenneth Knight/Night who was an MP or peer in that period. Since ministers need to be a member of either the Commons or the Lords, that pretty much rules out any possiblity that a "Ken Night" was a minister, unless this omission is one Rayment's occasional omissions, which I think unlikely. The most likely explanation, to my mind, is that someone called Ken/Kenneth Knight/Night may have had some role at some point as civil servant or special advisor or head of some commission in wartime, and that the ministerial tag is a misunderstanding … but that is not what is being claimed here, and no sources have been offered to support any such explanation. -BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
