Happy Birthday, Admiral Lord West! May your celebrations be smoother than the seas you've navigated and more enjoyable than parliamentary debates. From commanding ships to steering national security policy as Minister for Security and Counter-Terrorism (2007–2010), you’ve always kept Britain afloat with wit sharper than a naval sword.Your steadfast dedication has earned respect across political tides—proving that even in politics, an admiral can keep his sense of humor intact. Here's wishing you another year filled with smooth sailing, fewer storms at Westminster, plenty of laughter on deck—and perhaps finally convincing everyone you're not secretly James Bond undercover!
