Date of birth seems wrong. Is it 1974?

Did he mention that he is married and has four children?

"Politician"?[edit]

Surely, as far as he is notable at all, it is because he was in the GB Olympic rowing team. It's true he would like to be a politician, but apparently has been unsuccessful in getting elected to UK or European parliaments. Newburyjohn (talk) 06:13, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have amended the lede to former rower and Conservative politician. As a parliamentary candidate (but not currently active) he counts as a former politician. Nedrutland (talk) 07:29, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Is someone who has never held any office really classed as a "politician"? I agree with @Newburyjohn - Story has attempted to become a politician, unsuccessfully. In my opinion, merely being a political candidate does not make one a politician. TrottieTrue (talk) 02:42, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
