More Info:

Providing a correct name reveals that name in every category in which they are an accurate answer. All Prime Ministers are named as they were titled on first becoming Prime Minister and listed alphabetically based on either surname or peerage name (whichever is more appropriate or accurate at the point they first became Prime Minister). All answers are British politicians, especially UK Prime Ministers. Data is (hopefully) accurate as of May 2025.
