Timeline
Mark MacGregor (born 25 February 1961) is a British Conservative Party politician and entrepreneur.
He was educated at Emanuel School in London and Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, where he graduated with a degree in economics and modern history.
In the 1983 and 1987 General Elections, MacGregor worked for Michael Forsyth who was elected in the marginal seat of Stirling in Scotland.
In 1985, he was the national chairman of the Federation of Conservative Students (FCS), where he was associated with the libertarian faction.
MacGregor was elected Chairman of the Conservative Students in 1985-86 and Chairman of the National Association of Conservative Graduates, 1989–90.
MacGregor was an active member of the Thatcherite 'Conservative Way Forward' group in the 1990s though he is no longer involved in the organisation.
The two were near neighbours in Pimlico in the 1990s and have been friends since MacGregor was chairman of the Conservative Students and Gibb a leader of the Conservative Students in the mid-Eighties.
He was Francis Maude's campaign manager in the 1992 General Election.
Maude would lose his marginal North Warwickshire seat, despite winning more votes than at the election before.
Staunch supporter of Michael Portillo, MacGregor was thought to be behind the decision to install extra phone lines in a house in Lord North Street in 1995, as a possible campaign HQ for Portillo when it appeared Major was on the point of being ousted by the right.
In 1997, MacGregor contested the ultra-safe Labour seat of West Ham for the Conservatives.
MacGregor contested the South Thanet constituency for the first time in 2001.
On that occasion Stephen Ladyman polled 18,002 votes for Labour (45.7%) while MacGregor got 16,210 for the Conservatives (41.1%).
He fought several parliamentary elections for the party, became chief executive of Conservative Central Office from 2002 to 2003 and then ran Steve Norris' campaign to become Mayor of London in 2004.
In October 2002, MacGregor accepted undisclosed libel damages and a public apology at the High Court over allegations in Punch magazine.
Mr Justice Eady was told that MacGregor had never been chairman or a member of the Young Monday Club as had been falsely claimed by the magazine.
Mr MacGregor also successfully sued the Daily Mail for libel over similar allegations related to his period as Chairman of the FCS.
Worked for Michael Forsyth Ltd, and then became the founder Director of Marketforce Communications, his own PR agency and conference company.
In 2002, MacGregor was named the new chief executive of the Conservative Central Office appointed by Iain Duncan Smith on becoming Party leader.
In his psychometric evaluation, he was judged to have "a brilliant mind".
One of his first actions as chief executive was to push through a £1 million budget cut to stabilise the party's poor finances.
In his role, MacGregor was credited with drafting the speech for the then Chairman of the Conservative Party, Theresa May MP, which described the Tories as "the nasty party".
Former front-bencher, John Bercow said MacGregor was "talented" and "extraordinarily imaginative" and had organised a successful 2002 Party conference.
In a dispute over the leadership of Duncan-Smith, Tebbit called for MacGregor's dismissal as the party's chief executive in 2002.
Tebbit branded MacGregor as "one of the spotty youths" who were trying to make the Tories more socially inclusive.
Tebbit said: "I don't think he was a good chief executive... I think that he was not a good influence in Central Office."
Central Office was quoted as saying that MacGregor's departure was "long-planned and by mutual consent".
He wanted to become a parliamentary candidate and could not do so while chief executive, but he had reportedly clashed with Smith both over policy and organisational issues as well as the vexed issue of Duncan-Smith's wife working for her husband.
Central Office claims were undermined the following day when Michael Portillo MP (a leadership rival to Duncan-Smith), raised fresh doubts about Iain Duncan Smith's leadership of the Conservatives saying he was deeply disappointed by the replacement of Mark MacGregor.
Portillo said : "Mark MacGregor and Rick Nye are two of the most talented people that the party has ever employed and their achievements will be badly missed."
John Bercow praised MacGregor's loyalty, but also lamented the loss of his talent and creativity, adding "the modernising agenda has been at best, sidelined and at worst, lost".
He also ran the Conservative Mayoral campaign in 2004 to elect Steve Norris as Mayor of London – Norris lost to Ken Livingstone.
He stood once again in the 2005 general election, when he failed by 664 votes to defeat Ladyman, and BBC suggests the 2,079 votes gained by the UK Independence Party candidate, Nigel Farage, is likely to have cost MacGregor the seat.
From 2007, he has been chief executive of cloud and IT service company Connect Support Services.
He has run various businesses, including a communications company, Marketforce Communications Ltd, an events firm and a cloud technology company, Connect Support Services Ltd. He was appointed deputy director of Policy Exchange in early 2013 a year after his eldest child was born.
