The Lord Cathcart of Strathnaver, TimothyCathcart OBE PC is a British statesman and naval officer currently serving as the Permanent Under-Secretary to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. Timothy, who is Chief of Clan Cathcart is of Scottish descent and a close relative of HenryCathcart and WilliamCathcart. He joined the Royal Navy in January 2021 and was appointed Warrant Officer to the Royal Navy before leaving in November of the same year. He returned to the Royal Navy after the BIOT incident in October of 2022, being appointed Warrant Officer to the Royal Navy once again. In February 2023, Timothy was commissioned as an officer and given command of the then 1st Carrier Squadron, now the Carrier Strike Group. On the 30th of January 2023, Timothy was appointed Permanent Under-Secretary to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office by Cabinet Secretary Zoriby.[1]
Military career
British Army
Timothy first joined the British Armed Forces in November 2018, enlisting as a trooper in the Life Guards of the Household Cavalry. During his time in the Household Cavalry, which lasted for nine months until the decommissioning of the regiment, Timothy was promoted to Lance Corporal and earned the Marksman Qualification badge. While in the Household Cavalry, Timothy served alongside the now Commandant of the Household Cavalry MisterSett and Chief of Air Staff RoboChainGunner.
After the decommissioning of the Household Cavalry in August 2019, Timothy was transferred to the Coldstream Guards at the rank of Lance Sergeant as part of the initial staff tasked with starting the regiment. While serving in that role, Timothy was awarded the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal in November 2019 for one year of continuous service in the British Army. It was during this time that Timothy became a member of the Service Prosecuting Authority. At the peak of his time in the Coldstream Guards, Timothy attained the rank of Company Sergeant Major. Towards the beginning of summer 2020, Timothy was strained and felt he needed a break and thus briefly considered retiring from the army. The then Commandant of the Royal Tank Regiment RyanMountbatten offered Timothy to retain his role in the Service Prosecuting Authority if he were to transfer over to the Royal Tank Regiment as a reservist.
In June 2020, Timothy transferred to the Royal Tank Regiment at the rank of Corporal in the reserves. After a period of inactivity, Timothy returned to an active position in the Royal Tank Regiment to teach drill with his experience from the Household Cavalry and Coldstream Guards. Subsequently, Timothy was promoted to Sergeant. After the Royal Tank Regiment had been rebranded to the Royal Lancers, Timothy recieved an Honourable discharge in December 2020 from then Commandant JamieSandison with approval from the king.
Barely a month after retiring from the British Army, Timothy enlisted in the Royal Navy at the rank of Able Rate Second Class. He swiftly rose through the ranks and acquired three good conduct stripes, the maximum number a sailor can get. By April 2021, Timothy had achieved the rank of Petty Officer and was at the time a prominent instructor in the Royal Navy. After the retirement of Chief Petty Officer IvanMcDeer he took command of the then existant Trafalgar Squadron. After restructuring in June 2021 and the amalgamation of the multiple Surface Fleet squadrons into the Carrier Strike Group and Littoral Strike Group, Timothy was promoted to Chief Petty Officer in the Littoral Strike Group. In August of 2021, Timothy was appointed Warrant Officer to the Royal Navy, a position he held until November the same year. After a period of inactivity, Timothy discharged from the Royal Navy in late December 2021.
After the BIOT incident in October 2022, Timothy was invited to rejoin the Royal Navy at his previous rank of Warrant Officer to the Royal Navy in an effort to rebuild the Navy after a majority of staff had left to create their own group in protest of recent actions by the Group Staff in removing King George II. Together with other former esteemed members of the Royal Navy, Timothy aided in the effort to restart the Royal Navy. As Warrant Officer, Timothy was in charge of organising a new instructor corps capable of hosting regular and high quality events, a task he was successful in achieving. After serving for four months as Warrant Officer, on the 15th of January 2023 Timothy was commissioned for the first time in his military career. Assuming the rank of Midshipman, Timothy was set to take over command of the former 3rd Destroyer Squadron from Lt Cdr JohnKillen. One month after his initial commission, he was promoted to Sub Lieutenant, formally taking over command of the 3rd Destroyer Squadron. Roughly a month later, in April 2023 Timothy was Promoted to Lieutenant in tandem with a restructuring of the Royal Navy. Reorganising the 1st Carrier Squadron and the 3rd Destroyer Squadron into the Carrier Strike Group and the Littoral Strike Group. Subsequently, Timothy assumed command of the Carrier Strike Group, a position he holds to this day. On the 1st of May 2023, Timothy was promoted to Lieutenant Commander.
Political career
Early years
Timothy begun his career in british politics as a Member of Parliament for the British National Party under the leadership of MarkRaymonde in late 2017. After this brief tenure as an MP in BNP, Timothy returned to Parliament as a frontbencher for the Labour Party in the capacity of Shadow Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. Timothy served in this position until the end of the 42th term in parliament, ending on the 16th of June 2018. Having tasted politics, Timothy made a brief come-back to politics in spring 2019 as Member of Parliament for Chelsea and Fulham for the Conservative Party.
High Tories
In October 2019, Timothy made a return to politics full-time. This time as Member of Parliament for Chelsea and Fulham for the first rendition of the High Tory Party. After the complete failure of JoshRadcliffe's Low Tory government, King Thomas I dissolved parliament and called for an early election on the 18th of October 2019. In the subsequent election, the High Tory party won the popular vote by a landslide. Resulting in a merger with the Low Tory Party. Timothy was appointed Secretary of State for Foreign & Commonwealth Affairs, a role he served in until the 10th of November the same year. In the next election, then party leader Ayhjeff stepped down which resulted in JoshRadcliffe again taking over as Leader of the Conservative Party. Subsequently, Timothy stepped from his position in the proposed cabinet.
Conservative Party
In April 2020, following a large electoral loss, the then Leader of the Conservative Party Blokeston resigned and left the party without a clear successor. With the experience of serving as Foreign Secretary in the bag, Timothy took it upon himself to run for Leader. Running against Sllllllp, Timothy was successful in his bid for leadership by one vote. After leading the party through the 53rd term in parliament, after a vote of no confidence triggered by members of the 1922 Committee, Timothy was ousted from his position as leader of the party. Taking over this position was ElizabethRadcliffe. Disheartend by this sign of distrust, Timothy left politics to focus on his role in the British Armed Forces.
Recent Years
With an urge to redeem himself, Timothy made one last return to politics in May 2022 as a bachbench Member of Parliament for Northumberland in the Labour Party. In his role as a backbencher, Timothy quickly made a name for himself after hosting multiple party surgeries to increase public awareness and interest in the party. Together with WilliamMarina, Timothy rose through the ranks of the party, landing himself a seat on the National Executive Committee. At the time the party was enormously successful and after the election in June of the same year, Timothy was elected Chancellor of the Exchequer. This position however, he would only hold for six days as the government failed to pass their Kings Speech, resulting in the dissolution of Parliament and the appointment of a Lords Government.
As a consequence of the failure to pass a Kings Speech, the then Leader of the Labour Party, DeanRHeathcote resigned. Following an intense race for the leadership of the party, all other candidates pulled out of the race, leaving Timothy as the sole candidate for leadership. This resulted in Timothy becoming leader of the party on the 16th of June 2022.[2] In the June election, the Labour party emerged with 16 out of 50 seats. After entering hard negotiations with other parties, Labour was not successful in securing a coalition. The Conservative party , who had secured a deal with the Liberal Democrats entered into government under the leadership of Prime Minister ShiforRBLX.
Timothy served the full 67th term in Parliament as Leader of the Opposition but resigned on the 22th of August 2022.
