Produktinformationen zu „A Short History of the Liberal Party “
Chris Cook lifts the lid on the 'third Party;' charting their fascinating journey over the last century, from the landslide victory of 1906 under Asquith, via their descent into divisions and decline in the interwar years, to in-depth analysis of the 2010 British Election and their return to Government in the Conservative-Lib Dem coalition.
Klappentext zu „A Short History of the Liberal Party “
The Liberal Democrats have languished in the political shadows for a generation. With the advent of the 2010 television debates, they have returned once more to the spotlight. Cleggmania, 'I Agree With Nick' and talk of the 'Kingmaker' dominated coverage of the General Election of 2010. At the Polls, the electorate delivered a Hung Parliament and placed the Party back in Government, in coalition with the Conservatives. Chris Cook lifts the lid on the 'third Party'. Providing an indispensable account of their journey over the last century, he charts the Party's journey from the historic landslide victory of 1906, via their descent into divisions and decline in the interwar years, to in-depth analysis of the 2010 election. He asks, what of their future? Will the Conservative-Liberal Democrat Coalition divide the party? And what are the electoral prospects for the party? Chris Cook charts the journey of the Liberal Democrats from the landslide victory of 1906 to in-depth analysis of the 2010 British Election campaign and return to coalition government.
