- W2479963778 abstract "In May 1977, only months after coming to power, the Prime Minister Jim Callaghan faced a political storm after the recently appointed Foreign Secretary, David Owen, decided to recall Peter Ramsbotham, Britain’s Ambassador to Washington. Owen had caused the furore by replacing an experienced and distinguished diplomat with Peter Jay, economics editor of The Times, and more significantly, Callaghan’s son-in-law. Three weeks earlier, Peter Ramsbotham had received a personal note from Michael Palliser, the Permanent Under-Secretary of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), advising him of his recall to enable ‘a new relationship’ to be forged with the US government.1 Owen informed Cyrus Vance, the US Secretary of State, that the Ambassador was being replaced as part of a bid to address the negative perceptions of Britain that the Foreign Secretary ‘constantly’ encountered on his American visits.2 Owen’s private belief that the Ambassador did not enjoy the confidence of the Prime Minister, as well as a desire to establish his own personal link in Washington that would bypass FCO mandarins, had reinforced in his mind the need for a change in Britain’s representation.3 When Owen announced the decision to the diplomatic press corps on 11 May, the response was one of disbelief, giving way to derisory laughter.4 In a desperate bid to justify the decision, the Downing Street Press Secretary, Tom McCaffrey, intimated to journalists off-the-record that Ramsbotham’s diplomatic style was old-fashioned and inappropriate for a relationship with the new, youthful Democratic administration of Jimmy Carter, a message that was soon being pithily conveyed to the public under such sensational headlines as ‘Snob Envoy Had To Go.’5" @default.
