	Patricia A. Ferguson: Fighting on All Fronts Leo Amery and the First World War
		Amery wanted to replace liberalism with social imperialism, an all-encompassing and statist philosophy of government that would keep the imperial perspective at the forefront of all issues, and he would seek to solve Britain's and, indeed, the empire's social problems by intelligent and expert government intervention.
		Amery took notes at daily meetings and wrote up minutes and conclusions, acted as liaison between the Cabinet and the other ministries, saw that conclusions were transmitted into actions and carried out, and, with his colleague Mark Sykes, wrote weekly memoranda summarizing the world situation.
		Although Amery's future was far from assured at the end of 1918, the first of his career goals had been achieved: to his mind the election had spelled the end of nineteenth century liberalism and individualism, and for that he rejoiced greatly.

	::British Free Corps::
		At the beginning of World War Two, John Amery, the son of Leo Amery, Winston Churchill's Minister for India, drifted around Europe with seemingly little direction in his life.
		Amery got the idea for a British version that would be used in the fight against the Russians - a British anti-Bolshevik force.
		However, many believed that John Amery was no better than William Joyce - Lord Haw Haw - and that he had known what he was doing when he aided the enemy in trying to recruit men to fight for Nazi Germany.

		The statement by Oliver Cromwell when he dismissed the Rump Parliament was also made (more famously, IMHO) by Conservative MP Leo Amery against Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain in the House of Commons in May 1940.
		In May 1940 Amery made a highly critical attack on Chamberlain in the House of Commons over his management of the war, finishing his speech with the famous, damning dismissal made by Cromwell to the Rump Parliament.
		Churchill later credited Amery's speech to the House of Commons and the quote from Cromwell in particular as the event that instigated Chamberlain's downfall and Churchill's own election as Prime Minister.
