1/3 - The Lloyd George Society has also been made aware of the death of Prof. Huw Bowen. He was well known to members of the Lloyd George Society and the wider academic & political community. Huw was a professor of public history at Swansea University, among other university posts he held.

We are very sorry to hear the news of the death of Michael Meadowcroft on 1 June - author, activist, Liberal MP 1983-87, member of the Journal of Liberal History Editorial Board, a thoughtful and generous Liberal. We'll carry a full obituary in the summer issue of the Journal.

1/2 - It is with sadness that we have recently heard that Michael Meadowcroft, a friend and contributor of the Lloyd George Society over the years, died on Monday, aged 84. Michael was the former Liberal MP for Leeds West and a formidable Liberal thinker and figure.

#OTD 1916: H.H. Asquith resigns as PM. The crisis that led to his resignation had been building for over a month. Concern at the military weakness in the British army at the Battle of the Somme led Lloyd George to call for a restructuring of the War Council with himself as Chair.

#OTD 1923: Polling day in the 1923 general election. The Liberal Party, fighting on a familiar free trade platform, saw a recovery in its vote and the election of 158 MPs elected. Ominously for the party, it failed to overtake the Labour Party.

"Liberal Democrats work harder than anyone else. In those areas we're putting the effort in, we're coming out on top, Reform are coming second." @carlcashman.bsky.social

‘But that justification appears to have been undermined by a briefing from the commander of that operation before lawmakers…who reportedly said the boat in question was heading to the coast of Suriname, where it was planning to transfer its drugs to a larger vessel.’ time.com/7339154/admi...

#OTD 1919: David Lloyd George told General Bridges that the League of Nations was a humbug and a sham. Lloyd George noted that the League would apply to every nation but America, adding that whilst the League was not to interfere with American affairs, America would have a voice in Europe.
