Philip Gould, Baron Gould of Brookwood was a British political consultant, and former advertising executive, closely linked to the Labour Party.[1][2]

Appointed by Director of Communications Peter Mandelson, he was strategy and polling adviser to the Labour Party in the General Elections of 1987, 1992, 1997, 2001 and 2005.[3]

Involved in 'modernising' the party's image, Gould was particularly connected with Tony Blair and New Labour. The Daily Telegraph said Gould’s expertise and influence “was his replacement of crude opinion polling with American-style political focus groups”.[4]
