About
Sir James Michael "Jimmy" Goldsmith was born in Paris, France. He was a British-French financier and politician. He was the son of luxury hotel tycoon and former Conservative Member of Parliament Major Frank Goldsmith and his French wife Marcelle Mouiller. In 1994, he was elected to represent a French constituency as a Member of the European Parliament. He founded the short-lived Eurosceptic Referendum Party in the United Kingdom, and was one of the key power-brokers in British political circles that initiated party political opposition in that nation to its membership of the European Union. He became an active campaigner on environmental issues during his later years. He published a book entitled The Trap in 1994. He rebutted their reaction in another publication entitled The Response, published in 1995.
