Gairmréim
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Iriseoireacht
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Tar éis dó céim a bhaint amach in Ollscoil Oxford, d'oibrigh Jenkins ar dtús leis an iris Country Life, sular thosaigh sé leis an Times Educational Supplement . [3] Bhí sé ina ghné-eagarthóir agus ina cholúnaí ar an Evening Standard ansin sular chuir sé eagar ar leathanaigh Insight de chuid The Sunday Times.[4][5] Ó 1976 go 1978 bhí sé ina eagarthóir ar an Evening Standard, sular ceapadh é ina eagarthóir polaitiúil ar The Economist ó 1979 go 1986.[6] Chuir sé eagar ar The Times ó 1990 go 1992,[7] agus ó shin i leith tá sé ina cholúnaí do The Times agus The Guardian.[5] [8] Sa bhliain 1998 bronnadh an gradam What the Papers Say Journalist of the Year air.[4]
a scríobh I mí Eanáir 2005, d'fhógair sé go raibh sé ag cur deireadh lena chaidreamh 15 bliana leis an Times chun leabhar a scríobh, sula ndeachaigh sé isteach sa Guardian mar cholúnaí.[4] Choinnigh sé colún ag The Sunday Times agus bhí sé ina bhlagálaí a chuir alt isteach san The Huffington Post.[9] Nuair a rinneadh é ina chathaoirleach ar an Iontaobhas Náisiúnta i 2008, d’éirigh sé as an dá cheann, nuair a d’athchrom sé ar cholún ócáideach freisin a scríobh don Evening Standard .
Tuairimí
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]I mí Aibreáin 2009, tharraing The Guardian ceann d’ailt Jenkins siar óna shuíomh Gréasáin nuair a thug ceannaire Chomhdháil Náisiúnta na hAfraice agus uachtarán tofa na hAfraice Theas Jacob Zuma cás clúmhillte in aghaidh an pháipéir.[10] D'eisigh The Guardian leithscéal,[11][12] agus shocraigh sé an cás clúmhillte ar shuim neamhnochta.[13][14]
I mí Feabhra 2010, mhaígh Jenkins in alt san Guardian gur “expensive legacy of empire" a bhí i rialú na Breataine ar nahOileáin Fháclainne agus gur cheart iad a thabhairt ar láimh do rialtas na hAirgintíne.[15] D’áitigh sé go bhféadfaí iad a fháil ar ais ar léas faoi mhaoirseacht na Náisiún Aontaithe agus nár cheart go mbeadh "an unqualified veto on British government policy" ag an 2,500 nó mar sin d’Oileánaigh Fháclainne.[15]
I bpíosa in The Guardian i mí an Mheithimh 2010 scríobh sé gur cheart don rialtas "cut [defence], all £45 billion of it... With the end of the Cold War in the 1990s that threat [of global communism] vanished." [16] I mí Lúnasa 2016 scríobh sé in The Guardian i bhfabhar ballraíochta ECAT, ag rá: "It is a real deterrent, and its plausibility rests on the assurance of collective response" [17]
Vótáil Jenkins ar son na Ríochta Aontaithe fanacht laistigh den Aontas Eorpach i reifreann bhallraíocht na Ríochta Aontaithe san Aontas Eorpach 2016, ag áitiú in The Guardian go dtabharfadh an Bhreatimeacht ceannasaíocht don Ghearmáin ar an gcuid eile den aontas : "It would leave Germany effectively alone at the head of Europe, alternately hesitant and bullying" [18]
Scríobh Jenkins in The Guardian go raibh oibrithe cabhracha Rishi Sunak mar Phríomh-Aire "young, sneakered, tieless image-makers, and fiercely loyal to him." Go raibh na "special advisers, thinktanks and lobby groups isolated from the world outside."." [19]
Leabhair
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Tá roinnt leabhar scríofa ag Jenkins ar pholaitíocht, stair agus ailtireacht Shasana, lena n-áirítear England's Thousand Best Churches [20] agus England's Thousand Best Houses..[5] Ina leabhar 2011 A Short History of England, d’áitigh sé go raibh Impireacht na Breataine "was a remarkable institution that dismantled itself in good order" [21]
In 2022, spreag leabhar Jenkins, The Celts: A Skeptical History, roinnt conspóide mar gheall ar dhearcadh dochreidte Jenkins ar na Ceiltigh mar aonán cultúrtha ar leith. Le heisiúint na hoibre, rinneadh go leor achasán glórach faoi leabhar, agus luaigh léirmheastóirí an leabhair earráidí fíorasacha sa saothar chomh maith le míléiriú ar roinnt foinsí,[22][23]mar sin féin, bhí léirmheasanna eile níos tacúla do Jenkins.[24]
Ceapacháin phoiblí
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]D’fhreastail Jenkins ar bhoird British Rail 1979–1990 [6] agus London Transport 1984–1986.[6] Bhí sé ina bhall de Choimisiún na Mílaoise ó Feabhra 1994 go Nollaig 2000,[25] agus shuigh sé freisin ar Bhord Iontaobhaithe <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Architecture_Foundation" rel="mw:ExtLink" title="The Architecture Foundation" class="cx-link" data-linkid="160">The Architecture Foundation</a>.[26] Ó 1985 go 1990, bhí sé ina leas-chathaoirleach ar English Heritage.[5]
I mí Iúil 2008, fógraíodh go raibh sé roghnaithe mar chathaoirleach nua ar an National Trust; ghlac sé an post trí bliana ó William Proby i mí na Samhna na bliana sin.[27] D’fhan sé sa phost go dtí Samhain 2014.[28]
Saol pearsanta agus onóracha
