No real claim for notability appears to have been made for this "political analyst", despite a strange link to a promotion to a suit worn in 1911. Grahame (talk) 01:47, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment, probably also worth looking at the article for Statesman Institute, the group that this individual works for, which looks to have a somewhat dubious notability. Lankiveil (speak to me) 03:20, 31 January 2018 (UTC).

 * Delete, had a look into this and found nothing but astroturf on him and his institute. Lankiveil (speak to me) 00:13, 4 February 2018 (UTC).
 * Delete no claim to notability. ThinkTanks are a dime a dozen these days. Even if his was notable, that would not make him notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:03, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Non notable, promo. At the very very best merge into Statesman Institute if that survives AfD.  Aoziwe (talk) 14:36, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
