He was the youngest by far, and always a little spoilt and unfriendly. Nevertheless, a private school got him good grades and secured him a place at Oxford University, studying PPE (Politics, Philosophy and Economics), the course every powerful figure going into politics takes. While disinterested in party politics themselves, Stuart ensured that his name was around as a powerful figure, and the Conservative Party took him under their wing. Over nine years, Stuart rocketed through the ranks, not as a politician per se, but an adviser, press liason officer and general enforcer, making sure that those in the party, and often those not, did as instructed. Unfortunately for Stuart, he got a little too enthusiastic in his job, using close, and strictly speaking [i]illegal[/i] ties with powerful figures in the press to sweep one wing of the party into power, taking, naturally, him with them into almost the top dog. However, a miscalculation and a botched alliance had him caught out before he could make the right moves – immediately, his name was in every newspaper. While ultimately acquitted from those crimes of corruption, his name being mud made it impossible for him to get another position anywhere near his old level and certainly never trusted in the United Kingdom again, he finally turned his attention to those letters he'd been receiving from the BUC.
