This is not about LBS or Oxbridge but during my visit to UVA Darden in the USA the admissions director commented that last year they received a recommendation letter written by Barack Obama but gave it no weight because it was obvious that he did not know the applicant well. I am sure across the board they just want people who know the applicant and his/her abilities.
