Harold Osborne (Harold James Osborne; born 19 June, 1964) has been the Prime Minister of Esthursia since 30 January 2015. Alongside his role as Prime Minister, Osborne also serves as the Leader of the Social Democrats and has represented Brantley South as a Baron since the 2006 Esthursian general election. Osborne identifies as a "true social democrat", and has been seen by many as increasingly positioned towards the left of his party. He has also previously served as Secretary for Health under John Largan's administration, and in the Shadow Cabinet under Largan and Mark Willesden, having been seen as a rising star throughout the 2000s Harding era. His position as Shadow Secretary for Working Rights became unexpectedly important after the 2010 market crash and preceding industrial action, and he became a vocal critic of the Einarsson government.
Osborne was born and grew up in suburban Brantley, in the north of Osynstry, and attended selective state schools for both primary and secondary, before staying within Brantley for university. It is known that Osborne joined the Social Democrats in his first year of university, after meeting with then-Prime Minister Edgar Heresparn.
