Timeline
Sir Walter Ian Percival QC (11 May 1921 – 4 April 1998) was a British Conservative Party politician.
Percival was educated at Latymer Upper School and St Catharine's College, Cambridge.
He was commissioned from Sandhurst into The Buffs in 1941 and served in the Second World War in North Africa and Burma, attaining the rank of Major.
He became a barrister, was called to the Bar from the Inner Temple in 1948, and also worked as a part-time economics professor.
He first stood unsuccessfully in the Battersea North constituency at the 1951 general election and again at the 1955 election.
He served as a councillor on Kensington Borough Council 1952–59.
He was elected as Member of Parliament for Southport at the 1959 general election, holding the seat until he retired at the 1987 election.
He was made a Queen's Counsel in 1963, and was knighted in 1979.
Although coveting a Ministerial post, he was overlooked for the position he wanted in 1979 when Margaret Thatcher came to power, Secretary of State for Northern Ireland.
Instead, he served as Solicitor General from 1979 to 1983.
On some issues, Percival's political views were to the right of some in the Conservative Party; he campaigned unsuccessfully to restore the death penalty (introducing an unsuccessful Bill to restore it for terrorists in 1984), and held strong views on the rigorous application of the law.
He also called for the criminalisation of clubs and newsletters that existed for the purpose of allowing gay people to meet one another, opposed attempts to decriminalize homosexuality, and supported retaining imprisonment for life as the penalty for consensual anal sex.
Percival was a freemason.
After retiring, he supported several causes, including the establishment of a hospital in India after the Bhopal disaster.
In 1993 he became the head of a Trust to complete the hospital, following lengthy legal negotiations with Union Carbide while he was engaged as an attorney in the US law firm Sidley and Austin.
He died before its completion.
