Michael de la Pole, 1st Earl of Suffolk
Michael de la Pole, 1st Earl of Suffolk, 1st Baron de la Pole, of Wingfield Castle in Suffolk, was an English financier and Lord Chancellor of England. His contemporary Froissart portrays de la Pole as a devious and ineffectual counsellor who dissuaded King Richard II from pursuing a certain victory against French and Scottish forces in Cumberland, and fomented undue suspicion of that king's uncle John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster.
