===============================================
"I am an English Liberal. I hate the Tory Party, their men, their words and their methods." These were Winston Churchill’s own
words in 1903.
As a Liberal, Churchill held high government office and, along with Lloyd George, was regarded as one of the driving forces of
Asquith’s reforming administration. Was Liberalism his true political ideology?
Or should we judge his position from his re-ratting in 1924 and his long
association and later leadership of the Conservatives?
Churchill’s party politics will come under the spotlight at the History Group fringe meeting at the Liberal Democrat spring
conference. Delivering their verdicts will be Professor Martin Pugh, formerly of Newcastle and Liverpool John Moores Universities,
and Sir Alan Beith, Liberal and Liberal Democrat MP for Berwick-on-Tweed since 1973. The meeting is at 8.00pm, Friday 9 March in
Room MEC6, Sage Centre, Gateshead.
