ARCHIBALD PHILIP PRIMROSE, 5TH EARL OF ROSEBERY - LoveToKnow Article on ARCHIBALD PHILIP PRIMROSE, 5TH EARL OF ROSEBERY Early in 1905 this impression gained such strength and such polite references were made to one another in public by Lord Rosebery and Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, that his assumption of office in a Liberal ministry, possibly presided over by Earl Spencer, was confidently anticipated. The 5th earls mother was Catherine Lucy Wilhelmina, only daughter of Philip Henry, 4th Earl Stanhope; she was thus a sister of Earl Stanhope, the historian, and a niece of Lady Hester Stanhope, who was the niece of William Pitt. In deference to the wishes of supporters such as Mr Asquith, Sir Henry Fowler and Sir Edward Grey he determined to put his views into the common stock at a representative meeting of Liberals held at Chesterfield in December 1901. www.1911encyclopedia.org /R/RO/ROSEBERY_ARCHIBALD_PHILIP_PRIMROSE_5TH_EARL_OF.htm   (4109 words)

Definition of The Liberal Party (UK) He was overshadowed by Herbert Henry Asquith at the Exchequer, Edward Grey at the Foreign Office, Richard Burdon Haldane at the War Office and David Lloyd George at the Board of Trade. In 1841 the Liberals lost office to the Conservatives under Sir Robert Peel, but their period in opposition was short, because the Conservatives split over the repeal of the Corn Laws, a free trade issue, and a faction known as the Peelites (but not Peel himself, who died soon after), defected to the Liberal side. Another group under Sir John Simon emerged who were prepared to continue their support for the government and take the Liberal places in the Cabinet if there were resignations. www.wordiq.com /definition/The_Liberal_Party_%28UK%29   (3760 words)

Liberal Democrat History Group Early Letters of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman to his sister Louisa, 1850–51 chosen and edited by Lord Pentland (T. Fisher Unwin, 1925), is a delightful record of his life-shaping trip to Europe as a fourteen year old. John Wilson’s CB – A Life of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman (Constable, & St Martin’s Press, 1973) is a more solid and definitive modern work which benefits from access to papers of many contemporary politicians, not least Campbell-Bannerman himself, whose papers are in the British Museum.

Prime Minister of the United Kingdom The title was not formally adopted (though it had long been used) until the premiership of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman (1905-08) when a 'prime minister' was given a status just behind that of the Archbishop of York. It was not, however, until Sir Robert Walpole (1721-1742) that the First Lord of the Treasury became the most powerful minister, and became head of government. However, the office of "prime minister" has been explicitly referred to a number of times in emergency wartime legislation; and in 1905, the title was in a sense officially recognized, when the "prime minister" was given a position within the 'order of precedence' (behind the Archbishop of York). www.bidprobe.com /en/wikipedia/p/pr/prime_minister_of_the_united_kingdom.html   (1525 words)

Arthur Balfour - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In early 1887 Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, the Chief Secretary for Ireland, resigned because of illness, and Salisbury appointed his nephew in his place. The selection took the political world by surprise, and was much criticized, possibly leading to the British phrase "Bob's your uncle!" Balfour surprised his critics by his ruthless enforcement of the Crimes Act, earning the nickname "Bloody Balfour." Coupled with steady administration, Balfour did much to destroy his reputation as a public lightweight. These offices, while having few opportunities for distinction, served as a sort of apprenticeship for Balfour. www.sevenhills.us /project/wikipedia/index.php/Arthur_Balfour   (1755 words)

1927: Action This Day - Spring (FH114) - The Churchill Centre The Liberal Party's motion on that occasion had been placed by John Morley, whom Churchill had sharply criticized, along with Liberal leader Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, at a Conservative Party dinner in Manchester a month earlier: "I admire those who display a great deal of patient toleration. Morley's views are pernicious  - would be pernicious if they attained to an electoral majority-  it must nevertheless be recognized that his are the views of an honest man, a man who, somehow, in spite of his views, one does not altogether dissociate from the fortunes of his country. Churchill's third budget represented, in his own words, "the limits of what could be done by way of taxation without checking a trade revival."
