Any good anagrams for francis urquhart?

Francis Ewan Urquhart is a fictional character and the villainous main protagonist of Michael Dobbs's House of Cards trilogy of novels and television series, portrayed by Ian Richardson. A member of the Conservative Party, Urquhart is depicted as a ruthless politician who rises from Chief Whip of the Conservative Party to Prime Minister of the United Kingdom through treachery, deception and murder. He is married to Elizabeth Urquhart (Diane Fletcher), who appears to have a great deal of power over her husband, and often identifies his powers and abilities, or persuades him to use a given situation to his advantage. The protagonist had a sexual relationship with Mattie Storin (Susannah Harker) in the first serial and one with Sarah Harding (Kitty Aldridge) in the second serial. Urquhart was born in an aristocratic family with roots in the Scottish aristocracy, and served in the British Army in Cyprus for three years. After resigning his commission, Urquhart went on to study at the University of Oxford. Turning to politics, Urquhart joined the Conservative Party and became the MP for the constituency of New Forest in 1974. He served in several ministerial positions before becoming Chief Whip in 1987. Some of Urquhart's dialogue throughout the series is presented in a direct address to the audience, a narrative technique that breaks the fourth wall. These narrative asides are notably an invention of the television adaptation, as the book used third-person narration throughout. Urquhart has been described as conniving, Machiavellian, sociopathic, and a symbol of political corruption. Throughout the series, he manipulates and destroys several people, including those he calls friends, for his own ends. He is depicted as being willing to go to any lengths, even murder, to see that his intricate schemes payed off. During the first serial, he is the Chief Whip, before achieving his ambitious goal, becoming Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in the season finale. The follow-up serials To Play the King (1993) and The Final Cut (1995) focus on Urquhart's premiership, as he refuses to relinquish his position until he has beaten Margaret Thatcher's record as longest serving post-war prime minister. Urquhart is characterised by his usage of the catchphrase, "You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment", or a variation thereon, as a plausibly deniable way of agreeing with people and/or leaking information.Richardson received positive reviews for his portrayal of Urquhart, and won a BAFTA award for his performance. Urquhart's character inspired Frank Underwood, the villainous main protagonist of the American adaptation of House of Cards, portrayed by Kevin Spacey. Howard Rosenberg of the Los Angeles Times praised Urquhart as making "Richard Nixon look like a guileless wimp." Urquhart's catchphrase – "You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment" – has entered the national lexicon, and has been quoted in the House of Commons.
