- Jul.15.2010: Alan Parker, founder of City PR firm Brunswick rises up the MediaGuardian 100 thanks to his influence with David Cameron. Alan Parker is the godfather of modern financial public relations. The founder and chairman of the City's biggest PR firm, Brunswick, Parker was in an enviable position come the general election, being close to both David Cameron and Gordon Brown. His Brunswick Group straddles the world of politics, commerce and the media, shaping the nation's perception of big business and its corporate leaders. Son of the late Sir Peter Parker, the former head of British Rail, Parker entered the PR industry in the early 1980s at Brian Basham's Broad Street Associates and by 1987 had founded Brunswick. Both Brown and Cameron were guests at Parker's wedding to former political lobbyist Jane Hardman three years ago. Parker holidays with Cameron and is godfather to one of the Brown's children. It remains to be seen how Brunswick – and rivals such as Roland Rudd's Finsbury, also on this list – will be affected by the coalition govt's promised crackdown on lobbyists. Parker was one of a number of high-profile supporters of the Open Up campaign calling for all MPs who were tainted by the expenses scandal to resign and face reselection by their constituents. Brunswick's high-profile partners include former Sun editor David Yelland and Tim Burt, ex-media editor of the Financial Times. One of three famous brothers – actor Nathaniel Parker and film director Oliver Parker – Alan Parker is also chairman of Save the Children UK. The Guardian, Media Guardian 100
