Harold Macmillan was Secretary of the Union in Hilary 1914, then Junior Treasurer (elected unopposed, which was then very unusual) in Trinity 1914; but for the war he would "almost certainly" have been President.[155] S.

Bandaranaike was Treasurer in Trinity 1924.[156] Humayun Kabir was Librarian in 1931.[156] Roy Jenkins served as Librarian and Secretary and lost two Presidential elections.[157][158] Norman St John-Stevas was Secretary of the Oxford Union but never became President despite his ambition to be the first person to be President of both Oxford and Cambridge Unions; he had been President of the Cambridge Union during his undergraduate years, before he studied at Oxford.[159] Ann Widdecombe was Treasurer in 1972, after having served as Secretary the previous year.[160][161] Jacob Rees-Mogg was Librarian in 1990, losing the election for the presidency to future Education Secretary Damian Hinds.[162]
