	Prime Minister of Rhodesia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Prime Minister of Rhodesia (until 1964 Prime Minister of Southern Rhodesia) was the head of government in the colony of Rhodesia.
		Rhodesia's political system was modelled on Westminster and the prime minister's role was similar to that of the same position in other countries such as the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and at that time, South Africa.
		Prime Minister Ian Smith's government issued a Unilateral Declaration of Independence from Britain in 1965, and he remained Prime Minister when the country was declared a republic in 1970.

		Rhodesia was offered her first opportunity to join the Union of South Africa in 1910, and Charles Coghlan, who later became the first Prime Minister of Southern Rhodesia, attended the National Convention in Durban in 1908 as unofficial representative from Rhodesia.
		Federal Prime Minister Welensky argued vehemently that no provision had been made for secession from the Federation without the consent of all five parties (the Federal Government, the three partner countries and Britain) but it was increasingly clear that the Federation could not work if one or more of the states involved wanted out.
		Rhodesia was removed from the sterling area, British exports of capital goods to Rhodesia were banned, the purchase of Rhodesian tobacco was discontinued, Rhodesia was denied access to the London capital market, the Commonwealth Sugar Agreement was terminated (insofar it affected Rhodesia), and Rhodesian passports were declared illegal documents.

	Rhodesia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rhodesia is the former name of the British colony of Southern Rhodesia in southern Africa, which was governed by a white minority until 1979.
		Initially, the state maintained its loyalty to Queen Elizabeth II as 'Queen of Rhodesia' (a title to which she never consented) but not to her representative, the Governor Sir Humphrey Gibbs, whose constitutional duties were exercised by an 'Officer Administering the Government', Clifford Dupont.
		At the time of UDI, Rhodesia's Constitution provided for a Governor, appointed by the Queen, with political power residing with the unicameral Legislative Assembly, in which 50 out of 65 seats were reserved for whites.

	Guardian Unlimited Politics \| Special Reports \| Harold Wilson
		It is my view that he was a remarkable prime minister and, indeed, a quite remarkable man. Cynics had a field day ridiculing him at the time of his decline.
		James Harold Wilson happened to be prime minister leading a left wing party at a time when the mores of post-war political and economic change in Britain (and elsewhere) were just beginning to be perceived.
		In November sterling fell to $2.40 and a badly shaken prime minister made an inept television address to the nation, arguing that the "pound in your pocket" was unaffected - an extraordinary reversal of the euphoric days of 1964-1966.
