    “historian”

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Roberts,_Baron_Roberts_of_Belgravia?useskin=vector

    Although Roberts’s 2006 work A History of the English-Speaking Peoples since 1900 won critical acclaim from some sections of the media,[42][43] The Economist drew attention to some historical, geographical, and typographical errors, as well as presenting a generally scathing review of the book. The newspaper referred to the work as “a giant political pamphlet larded with its author’s prejudices”.[7] More generally, Reba Soffer described him in 2009 as “devoted … to public, polemical conservatism as well as to historical revisionism”.[44]

    He’s too far right for The Economist. Also he’s a baron.
