Introit John’s1 hoary historiographical aphorism, about maintaining conclusions with doubt,2 has now evolved into his frequent response to the fragmentary observations from which what follows grew. It’s clear that the longer he’s around, the more that certainty evades him, and all he’s prepared to offer is ‘quite possibly so…’ So, in that inquisitive spirit, this material remains defiantly provisional. Six days after the notorious Shanghai massacre in which Chiang Kai-shek purged the Communists from the Kuomintang, ordering over a thousand to be arrested, 300 to be officially executed and caused another 5,000 to go missing; and just two days after the birth in his parents' home in the village of Marktl am Inn, Bavaria, of Joseph Ratzinger who later became Pope Benedict XVI, John was born on 18 April 1927, in Upper Heath, Hampstead, in London.3 1 Dr John Slater, BA (Oxon), Dip Ed (Oxon), MA (London), D Phil (Exeter), FHA.

  • Clement Attlee Was Born on 3 January 1883 in Putney, the Seventh of Eight Children
    P R O F I L E Clement Attlee was born on 3 January 1883 in Putney, the seventh of eight children. His father, Henry Attlee, was a solicitor and senior partner in the firm of Druces and Attlee, whose offices were in the Middle Temple. After being home-schooled, Attlee was educated at the preparatory school Northaw Place and then Haileybury College, both in Hertfordshire. At Haileybury, which had a strong military ethos, Attlee became an enthusiastic member of the Volunteer Rifle Corps. After leaving Haileybury in 1901 Attlee went on to University College, Oxford, where he studied Modern History. He specialised in Italian and Renaissance history and graduated in 1904 with a second-class degree. After leaving Oxford Attlee followed in his father’s footsteps and entered the legal profession, although without any great enthusiasm for it. He had been admitted to the Inner Temple on 30 January 1904, and in the autumn of that year entered the Lincoln’s Inn chambers of Sir Philip Gregory. His father’s connections meant he had already C L E M E N T dined at the Inner Temple; he was called to the Bar in March 1906. In October 1905, Attlee accompanied his brother Laurence to the A T T L E E Haileybury Club, a club in Stepney, East London for working-class boys, run by former Haileybury College pupils. It was connected to B O R N 1 8 8 3 the Territorial Army, and volunteers were expected to become non- D I E D 1 9 6 7 commissioned officers.

  • Hereditary Peers in the House of Lords Since 1999
    Library Note Hereditary Peers in the House of Lords Since 1999 The House of Lords Act 1999 ended the centuries-old linkage between the hereditary peerage and membership of the House of Lords. The majority of hereditary Peers left the House of Lords in November 1999, but under a compromise arrangement, 92 of their number, known as ‘excepted’ hereditary Peers still sit in the House today. Since the 1999 Act, there have been numerous proposals put forward for a second stage of major reform of the House of Lords, and for smaller incremental reforms which would end the practice of hereditary by-elections, but to date none of these has succeeded. This Note examines the role of hereditary Peers in the House of Lords since the 1999 Act. It begins by providing a very brief history of the hereditary principle in the House of Lords. It considers the passage of the 1999 Act through Parliament, and the impact it has had on both the composition and the behaviour of the House of Lords. It contains information about the elections and by-elections through which the excepted hereditary Peers have been chosen, as well as details of hereditary Peers who sit by virtue of a life peerage, female hereditary Peers in their own right and a statistical profile of hereditary members of the House today. The Note also outlines proposals for small and large scale reforms put forward by Labour, the current Government and in private members’ bills since 1999. Nicola Newson 26 March 2014 LLN 2014/014 House of Lords Library Notes are compiled for the benefit of Members of the House of Lords and their personal staff, to provide impartial, politically balanced briefing on subjects likely to be of interest to Members of the Lords.

  • House of Lords
    HOUSE OF LORDS Wednesday 23rd July 1958 NEW TITLE OF NAVAL SIGNALMEN LORD CONESFORD: My Lords, I beg to ask the Question which stands in my name on the Order Paper. (The Question was as follows: To ask Her Majesty's Government whether a leading signalman in the Navy is in future to be called a leading tactical communication operator, and if so, why,? THE FIRST LORD OF THE ADMIRALTY (The Earl of Selkirk) My Lords, the noble Lord is correct in his assumption. The purpose of the new title is to indicate more precisely the nature of the duties these ratings nowadays carry out. The Branch concerned considers the new names an improvement, and it can be compared with the change of the name from stoker to engineering mechanic. It brings them more into line with the terms used in civilian employment. The title of this rating is admittedly rather cumbersome when spoken in full, but it will normally be abbreviated in the letters "L.T.O." LORD CONESFORD My Lords, does that mean that in future a naval officer will never make a signal but will operate a tactical communication? Is the First Lord aware that for centuries our sailors have been masters of terse and vigorous English? Will the Admiralty honour this tradition instead of wallowing in gutless verbosity? THE EARL OF SELKIRK My Lords, I think the noble Lord may rest assured that the Royal Navy will continue to make signals of all characters. I think the noble Lord may also be assured that the Royal Navy will continue to express itself in terse English, whether in terms of endearment or otherwise.
