Dominic Raab Biography

Dominic Raab is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on February 25, 1974 in Buckinghamshire, England, United Kingdom. The family was raised Raab was born in Buckinghamshire around 1974. Raab was the child of Jean who was a clothing buyer along with Peter Raab, a food manager at Marks & Spencer. His father was Jewish and emigrated to Britain from Czechoslovakia at the age of six in 1938 in the wake of the Munich Agreement, which gave some of Czechoslovakia to Nazi Germany. Raab was raised by his English religion of his mother, which was the Church of England. Raab was raised living in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire. Raab was just twelve an old at the time his dad passed away from cancer.

The House of Commons, Raab was in favor of the plans of the coalition government to reduce the deficit in its budget as well as to expand academy schools, abolish the Identity Cards Act 2006, and pass an Freedom Bill. Raab criticized the government for choosing to adopt the EU directive regarding the European Investigation Order, arguing it could encroach on resources for operational policing and weaken the security measures that protect British citizens from the misuse of their personal information and guaranteeing the right to a fair trial.

In July 2010, he secured a review of positive discrimination rules being applied to Foreign and Commonwealth Office work experience schemes, having been contacted by a constituent who had been rejected from the scheme for failing to meet “the social criteria”. The two programmes at the organisation barred white males from applying, other than those from low-income backgrounds; Raab argued they re-introduced discrimination ‘via the backdoor’. The MP welcomed the review, blaming the situation on the previous Labour government. He stated “positive discrimination is wrong in the same way as negative discrimination. It means people are thinking in terms of social criteria and it is anti-meritocratic.”

He came to media attention in August 2010, after requesting that the pressure group 38 Degrees remove his parliamentary email address from their website, arguing that lobby groups sending or coordinating ‘clone emails’ designed to deluge MP’s inboxes detracted from their ability to correspond with constituents and help those in real need. 38 Degrees said that the email address is paid for by taxpayers’ money and is in the public domain, thus they have every right to host it on their website and use it for campaigning.

After having left Cambridge, Raab worked at Linklaters in London after completing his two-year apprenticeship at the firm before departing shortly after obtaining his certification for the position of solicitor the year 2000. While at Linklaters he was involved in project finance as well as international litigation as well as competition law. The work included time on secondments with Liberty (the Human Rights NGO) as well as in Brussels providing advice about EU as well as WTO law. He was a student in 1998 in Birzeit University near Ramallah, the capital of the PNA, located in the West Bank, where he was one of the main PLO negotiators in the Oslo peace agreements, evaluating World Bank projects on the West Bank.
