The Aberdeen Coalition 1852–1855 fb2 免费 lrf 下载 kindle azw3 pdf 阿里云

This book examines the Aberdeen Administration of 1852–1855 in

detail in order to clarify the complicated subject of party

relationships in mid-nineteenth-century British politics and the

operation of the British parliamentary system at that time. Its

interest centres on the role of the Peelites in the Coalition as a

stage in the evolution of the Gladstonian Liberal party. The author

describes the formation of the Coalition, the Cabinet membership

and the legislative achievements of 1853 Gladstone's famous Budget

settling the issue of the Income Tax, the now forgotten India Act

and valuable reform legislation. The success of 1853 is contrasted

with the failure of 1854. The author describes the routine problems

that faced all ministries, the endless parliamentary wrangles over

religion and Ireland, the colourful contributions to debate by such

eccentrics as Colonel Sibthorpe, the problems of patronage, and the

relations between the Prime Minister and the Queen.
