The obituary notice of Christopher HASKINS

I owe Chris so much. He encouraged and supported me throughout my career at Northern Foods. Charismatic,highly intelligent and well read Chris could hold his own in any situation with a disarming charm whether the recipient was a Tory Cabinet Minister or a Director of a major customer.
Life with Chris was never dull, sometimes unpredictable, deliciously indiscrete but almost always fun.
An amazing man, an outstanding leader free of pomposity who also made time to make great contributions to the Open University and socially minded ThinkTanks
I will miss him enormously.

Chris will remembered with warmth and affection by all who came across him during his rich and varied life. We met during the 1990s when I was the Political Editor of the Financial Times and Chris was combining a successful career in business with engagement in politics. I remember him as sharp, funny, and kind. He understood - more clearly I think than the Blair government - how building. successful economy and a fairer society can go hand in hand. Sadly, I lost touch with Chris in more recent years. But the fond memories stay with me. Rest in Peace. Philip Stephens
