}}Thomas Henry Bingham, Baron Bingham of Cornhill {{post-nominals|country=GBR|KG|PC|FBA}} (called Tom;[1][2][3][4] 13 October 1933{{snd}}11 September 2010), was an eminent British judge and jurist who served as Master of the Rolls, Lord Chief Justice and Senior Law Lord. He was widely recognized as the greatest judge and lawyer of his generation.[1] Baroness Hale of Richmond observed that his pioneering role in the formation of the United Kingdom Supreme Court may be his most important and long-lasting legacy.[2] Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers regarded Bingham as 'one of the two great legal figures of my lifetime in the law'.[3]

After retiring from the judiciary in 2008, Bingham focused on teaching and lecturing in human rights law. His book, The Rule of Law, was published in 2010 and posthumously won the 2011 Orwell Prize for Literature. The British Institute of International and Comparative Law named the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law in his honour.

Early life

Bingham was born at Marylebone in London. His parents, Thomas Henry Bingham (1901–1981) and Catherine (née Watterson; 1903–1989), practised as doctors in Reigate, Surrey. His father was born in Belfast;[4] his mother was from California before being raised on the Isle of Man.

He was educated at The Hawthorns prep school at Bletchingley, Surrey, where he was Head Boy, and then from 1947 the Cumbrian public school Sedbergh School (Winder House), where he was described as the "brightest boy in a hundred years". He enjoyed history, took up fell-walking, and developed a strong attachment with the Church of England; he was a Head of House and a School Prefect. He won an open scholarship to Balliol College, Oxford, but first completed National Service from 1952 to 1954, as a second lieutenant in the Royal Ulster Rifles serving in Hong Kong. He enjoyed his time in the Army and considered pursuing a military career before opting to serve in the Territorial Army for the next five years.[5]

He went up to Oxford in 1954 and initially read Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, but after two terms switched to History. He won a Coolidge Pathfinder Award and spent the summer of 1955 in the US. He entered Gray's Inn during his second year at Oxford, with a view to becoming a barrister.[6] He was elected President of Balliol Junior Common Room in his third year, standing as an independent without the endorsement of a political party. He won the Gibbs Prize for Modern History in 1957, and was awarded first-class honours in his finals. He also tried, unsuccessfully, for the scholarship at All Souls College. After graduation, he read for the Bar as Eldon Law Scholar and came top of Bar finals in 1959.[7]

In 1963 he married Elizabeth Loxley, whose great-uncle was Major Gerald Loxley,[8] of the Loxley family of Northcott Court, Hertfordshire;[9] they had one daughter Catherine Elizabeth (born 1965), and two sons Thomas Henry ("Harry", born 1967) and Christopher Toby (born 1969).[10] Their only daughter, the Hon. Kate Bingham, is married to Dr Jesse Norman MP since 1992.[11][12]

Bingham and his wife Elizabeth acquired in 1965 a cottage at Cornhill, near Boughrood in Powys; he died there in 2010.[13]

Early career

Bingham was called to the Bar by Gray's Inn, and was a pupil barrister under Judge Owen Stable QC[14] in the chambers of Leslie Scarman at 2 Crown Office Row, which later moved to Fountain Court Chambers: within a few months, he was invited to become a tenant at the chambers. He took silk in 1972, becoming Queen's Counsel aged just 38 and the youngest that year, having served as Standing Counsel at the Department of Employment for four years from 1968. He was Counsel to the judicial inquiry into an explosion at a chemical plant at Flixborough in 1974 which killed 28 people. In 1977, when still at the Bar, he rose to public attention when he was appointed by the then-Foreign Secretary Dr. David Owen to head a public enquiry into alleged breaches of UN sanctions by oil companies in Southern Rhodesia.

He was appointed a Recorder in 1975, and became a Bencher of Gray's Inn in 1978. He was promoted High Court Judge of the Queen’s Bench Division in April 1980, aged 46, and assigned to the Commercial Court, receiving the customary knighthood. He was further promoted to the Court of Appeal in 1986, joining the Privy Council. In 1991 he led a high-profile inquiry into the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).[15]

Senior judicial career

Bingham succeeded Lord Donaldson as Master of the Rolls in 1992 and initiated significant reforms, including a move towards the replacement of certain oral hearings in major civil law cases and he was one of the first senior judges to give public support to incorporation of the European Convention on Human Rights into English Law, which ultimately came about with the passing of the Human Rights Act 1998. Despite being less experienced in criminal law, Bingham was appointed Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales in 1996, following Lord Taylor. In England and Wales, he was the highest-ranking judge in regular courtroom service; he was personally responsible for adding "and Wales" to the office's title.

He was created a Life Peer as Baron Bingham of Cornhill, of Boughrood in the County of Powys, on 4 June 1996,[16] enabling him to serve on the Appellate Committee of the House of Lords. He continued as Lord Chief Justice until 2000, when he was appointed Senior Law Lord. This position had customarily been held by the longest-serving Law Lord, but the then-Lord Chancellor, Lord Irvine, took the view that a more dynamic leader was required. Bingham was followed in the office of Lord Chief Justice by Lord Woolf, who had succeeded him as Master of the Rolls in 1996.

Bingham was a strong advocate for divorcing the judicial branch of the House of Lords from its legislative functions by setting up a new Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, which was accomplished under the Constitutional Reform Act 2005. The title of the office he held was redesignated as "President of the Supreme Court" upon that court's establishment in October 2009, but after Bingham had retired in July 2008; he is understood to have been "very sorry" not to serve as its inaugural president.[17]

Bingham oversaw an increasing workload of constitutional affairs after Scottish devolution, and human rights matters after the Human Rights Act came into force, and assembled the first nine-judge panels for important cases since 1910, including the Belmarsh Case in December 2004 which reviewed the regime for indefinite detention of foreign nationals suspected of involvement in terrorism who could not be deported due to the risk of torture in their home countries, holding that the régimes might breach the Human Rights Act. He was one of two Law Lords to dissent against the decision to overturn High Court and the Court of Appeal verdicts to quash an Order-in-Council, dismissing any impediments to the rights of the Chagos Islanders to return home. Bingham also presided over various decisions of the Privy Council Judicial Committee upholding that death penalties in Belize, St Lucia, St Kitts and the Bahamas be unconstitutional.[18]

Honours

Bingham was awarded the degree of Doctor of Civil Law honoris causa by the University of Oxford in 1994. From 2001 to 2008, Bingham held the office of High Steward of the University of Oxford, its second highest office in the academic hierarchy, and in 2003 he came second to Chris (now Lord) Patten in the election for Chancellor. Bingham served as the Visitor of Balliol College, Oxford from 1986 to 2010.

Bingham served on the Advisory Council on Public Records, the Magna Carta Trust, and the Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts. He was a Trustee of the Pilgrim Trust for 15 years and an Honorary Fellow of the British Academy from 2003. In 2005, he was advanced from Knight Bachelor to the Garter,[19] an honour in the personal gift of the Sovereign and seldom bestowed upon judges, being installed as a Knight of the Garter with Lady Soames and Sir John Major. He also served as President and Chairman of the British Institute of International and Comparative Law, which established in 2010 the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law in his honour.

On Thursday, 16 November 2006, Bingham delivered the sixth annual Sir David Williams Lecture hosted by the Centre for Public Law[20] at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge; this lecture was entitled "The Rule of Law".[21] On 17 January 2008, Bingham presented the annual Hansard Lecture at the University of Southampton. On 14 March 2008, Bingham received the degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence honoris causa from the University of Rome III, after delivering the Lectio Magistralis at the Faculty of Law entitled "The Rule of Law".

In 2009, Bingham became involved with Reprieve, a UK Charity,[22] as well as delivering the fourth annual Jan Grodecki Lecture at the University of Leicester, entitled The House of Lords: Its Future.[23]

Retirement

Bingham remained active in retirement. On 17 November 2008, in his first major speech since retiring as Senior Law Lord, Bingham, addressing the British Institute of International and Comparative Law, disputed the legality of the 2003 invasion of Iraq by the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries. He said that the invasion and occupation of Iraq was "a serious violation of international law", and he accused Britain and the US of acting like a "world vigilante".

In June 2009, Bingham was interviewed by the celebrated British legal commentator Joshua Rozenberg on the subject of the rule of law in international affairs, which was conducted to raise awareness of the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law at the British Institute of International and Comparative Law. Bingham's thoughts on this subject, in particular the banning of certain weapons in international conflict, were covered by newspapers The Independent ("Top judge: use of drones intolerable")[24] and The Daily Telegraph ("Unmanned drones could be banned, says senior judge").[25]

Bingham gave [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L69LJL4Qk5A another interview] concerning the rule of law and matters pertaining to the "British Constitution" with the charity, the Constitution Society.[26]

His book, The Rule of Law, was published by Allen Lane in 2010; it won the 2011 Orwell Prize for Literature.[27]

Death

Diagnosed with lung cancer in 2009, Bingham died the following year,[28] and is buried at St Cynog's Church, Boughrood. His memorial service was held at Westminster Abbey on 25 May 2011 with the Adamant New Orleans Marching Band playing out When the Saints Go Marching In.

Legacy

In an interview on 7 February 2014, Nick Phillips, successor to Bingham as Senior Lord of Appeal in Ordinary, remarked that "…Tom Bingham was the most wonderful man, he was head and shoulders above everybody else in the Law in my view…yes just outstanding…his clarity of thought, his academic knowledge. I think almost everyone would say that he was, you know, the great lawyer of his generation".[29]
