He also served in several different offices during the 1940s and 1950s. He played an important role in the selection of Harold Macmillan, 1st Earl of Stockton to the office of prime minister in 1957. In later years, the imperialist Salisbury was quite vocal in his support for white-ruled governments in Africa. More trivially, he went by the nickname "Bobbety", and had a noticeable speech impediment which caused him to pronounce the letter "r" like the letter "w".
