whos robert peel?

Answer 1

There have been several Robert Peels of note, below are a selection of them:

Sir Robert Peel, 2nd Baronet (5 February 1788 – 2 July 1850) was a Conservative Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from December 10, 1834 to April 8, 1835, and again from August 30, 1841 to June 29, 1846. He is best remembered as the originator of the modern concept of the police force while Home Secretary, for overseeing the formation of the Conservative Party out of the shattered Tory Party and for his repealing of the Corn Laws.

His maiden speech in the Commons was a sensation, and was famously described by the Speaker as "the best first speech since that of William Pitt".

For the next decade he occupied a series of relatively minor positions in the Tory governments: Undersecretary for War, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and chairman of the Bullion Committee (charged with stabilizing British finances after the end of the Napoleonic Wars). He also changed seats twice: first picking up another rotten borough, Chippenham, then becoming MP for Oxford University in 1817.

He later served as MP for Tamworth from 1830 until his death. His home was Drayton Manor.

Historian and journalist Robert Peel (1909-1992) was a significant ecumenical figure in Christian Science, best known for writing his church's definitive three-volume authorized biography of its founder, Mary Baker Eddy. He also wrote studies of Christian Science's most well-known feature: its claims of spiritual healing.

During his later years, because of his familiarity with Christian Science's early history, he foresaw and spoke out against the church's trend toward growth through marketing and promotionalism rather than through its traditional emphasis on its healing theology, which placed him at odds with top church executives during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

He was also a prime contributor to other works on which his name did not necessarily appear, an author of numerous articles in Christian Science periodicals, and a part-time unlisted Christian Science practitioner.

Robert ("Bobby") Peel (born February 12, 1857 in Leeds, died August 12, 1941 in Leeds) was a Yorkshire and England cricketer: a left-arm spinner who ranks as one of the finest bowlers of the 1890s. His record in Test matches, though flattered by the primitiveness of the pitches, is still remarkable. He was also a capable batsman, who once hit 210 not out (out of a record County Championship total of 887 against Warwickshire). However, he is well remembered for being the first player in Test cricket history to have been dismissed four times in succession without scoring (in 1894/1895).

Peel emerged in first-class cricket for Yorkshire in 1882 and quickly established himself as a skillful left-arm spin bowler with extraordinary accuracy of pitch and the ability to bowl a fast ball that obtained many wickets. His ability was considered so highly by 1884 that, even though he was relatively inexperienced, Alfred Shaw took him to Australia in 1884/1885, where he appeared in all three Tests. He took 21 wickets, but played disappointingly in the dry summer of 1885. Despite recovering his form, Peel did not play in the three 1886 Tests, but in 1887/1888 he played superbly at the Sydney Cricket Ground, taking nine wickets for 58 runs and being England's match-winner.

Answer 4

Sorry I'm not adding much but I would like you to know that I am an ex-Tamworthian and agree with most of what has been said. He also established some alms houses for the poor people of the town. Drayton Manor is quite a popular place now. When I was young there was a brilliant ride called The Snake Train but I suspect it has long gone.
