Denise Riley

Denise Riley MP was the Home Secretary in the British government during the 456 incident.

Biography
Denise was a mother with at least two children. She also had a brother with at least two children of his own. She attended a meeting of COBRA to discuss the 456 incident and their demand for 10% of Britain's children.

Denise kept her children out of selection, but could not keep her nieces and nephews safe. She suggested to Prime Minister Brian Green that they select the bottom 10% achievers of the schools and give them to the 456. Believing that those who worked harder would staff the hospitals, offices, and factories of the future and those who graduated would be the leaders of the future, she said the bottom 10% would simply drain the country with benefits and fill up prisons. (TW: Children of Earth: Day Four) Denise's future in the government is not known, but she suggested that she would take over position as Prime Minister from Brian Green.

For at least a while, she remained Home Secretary as she was still in office when the Enochian-possessed trees attacked Greenwich Park. (IDW: Don't Step on the Grass)
