Damian Patrick George Hinds[2] (born 27 November 1969) is a British Conservative Party politician who has been Member of Parliament (MP) for East Hampshire since 2010. He previously served as Secretary of State for Education under Theresa May from 2018 to 2019; he has also held junior ministerial positions under four Prime Ministers.

Hinds was appointed Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury by David Cameron in 2015. He was moved to the post of Minister of State for Employment in 2016 after Theresa May's appointment as prime minister. In May's 2018 cabinet reshuffle he was promoted to Secretary of State for Education. He lost this position following Boris Johnson's appointment as prime minister in 2019. He returned to government in 2021 as Minister of State for Security and Borders. He returned to the backbenches on 7 July 2022, resigning in protest to Johnson's leadership. He was appointed Minister of State for Prisons, Parole and Probation by new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in October 2022, before becoming Schools Minister in November 2023.

Early life and career

Damian Hinds was born on 27 November 1969 in Paddington, London. He was educated at St Ambrose College, a voluntary aided Roman Catholic grammar school in Hale Barns, Greater Manchester. Hinds studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Trinity College, University of Oxford, attaining a first class degree. Whilst at Oxford, he served as President of the Oxford Union.

Before becoming an MP, Hinds spent 18 years working in the brewing and hotel industries, in Britain and abroad.[3]

Parliamentary career

Hinds stood as the Conservative candidate in Stretford and Urmston at the 2005 general election, coming second with 30.4% of the vote behind the incumbent Labour MP Beverley Hughes.[4]

In government

At the 2010 general election, Hinds was elected as Member of Parliament for East Hampshire with 56.8% of the vote and a majority of 13,467.[5]

Hinds sat on the Education Select Committee between 2010 and 2012.[6] He was also a member of the Public Bill Committee for the Defence Reform Act 2014.[7]

At the 2015 general election, Hinds was re-elected as MP for East Hampshire with an increased vote share of 60.7% and an increased majority of 25,147.[8]

In the run-up to the referendum of 2016, he campaigned in favour of the UK remaining in the European Union.[9] He was made Minister of State for Employment by Prime Minister Theresa May on 17 July 2016.

Hinds was again re-elected at the snap 2017 general election with an increased vote share of 63.6% and an increased majority of 25,852.[10]

In the 2018 cabinet reshuffle[11] he was appointed as Secretary of State for Education, succeeding Justine Greening, who resigned rather than changing position.[11]

In January 2018, Hinds spoke in Parliament about his interest in the Catholic education sector and the admissions rules that apply to faith free schools.[12]

During his tenure as education secretary, Hinds introduced First Aid and CPR courses to school curriculums and launched a campaign to increase awareness of the importance of technical skills and apprenticeships' education.[13][14]

In opposition

At the 2024 general election, Hinds was again re-elected, with a decreased vote share of 36.9% and a decreased majority of 1,275.[21]
