Jacqueline Minor

Jacqueline Minor has been the European Commission's Head of Representation in the United Kingdom since 2013. Minor was described by the Huffington Post in 2013 as ‘the woman with the hardest job in Britain’ because, one month after her appointment, British Prime Minister David Cameron announced that he would seek to renegotiate Britain's membership of the European Union and would hold a referendum on EU membership in 2017.
