The piece discusses the ramifications of these developments in relation to the Labour party's ideological response to mass communication and the role now played by external media in the internal affairs of this organisation. The paper also seeks to assess how campaigns have historically developed in a country with an almost continuous, century long cycle of elections. Keywords: Political marketing, British elections, Labour Party, historical campaigning, party organisation, campaign professionals. Dominic Wring is Programme Director and Lecturer in Communication and Media Studies at Loughborough University. He is also Associate Editor (Europe) of this journal. Dr Wring is especially interested in the historical development of political marketing and has published on this in various periodicals including the British Parties and Elections Review, European Journal of Marketing and Journal of Marketing Management. 2 Introduction. To paraphrase former General Secretary Morgan Philips’ famous quote, Labour arguably owes more to marketing than it does to Methodism or Marxism.

  • By-Election Rebuffs and After
    THE ECONOMIC WEEKLY ANNUAL NUMBER FEBRUARY 1965 From the London End By-Election Rebuffs and After Patrick Gordon Walker's dramatic defeat at Leyton is not the only by-election rebuff that the Labour Govern­ ment has suffered. At Nuneaton, another safe constituency, the Labour majority was halved at the election held to find Frank Cousins a seat in the Commons. The Liberals have not been slow to smell their opportunity. Jo Grimond has warned that "if Wilson wants to stay in office he really must start doing things which appeal to a wider public than the hard-core of the left- wing socialist voters". So the question is: with his majority reduced to three, wilt Harold Wilson trim his policies and seek an arrangement with the Liberals? THE dramatic defeat of Patrick pared with the 50.3 per cent votes the the margin has been declining since Gordon Walker at the Leyton by- Labour candidate received at the November (when Labour was 11,5 per election came as a complete surprise, General Election, at the by-election he cent ahead) but the Opinion Polls, not only to the Labour Party, but to received only 42.4 per cent while the Leyton and Nuneaton notwithstanding, the Conservatives as well.

  • 1 the Diary of Michael Stewart As British Foreign Secretary, April-May
    The Diary of Michael Stewart as British Foreign Secretary, April-May 1968 Edited and introduced by John W. Young, University of Nottingham. The Labour governments of 1964-70 are probably the best served of all post-war British administrations in terms of diaries being kept by ministers.1 In the mid-1970s a very detailed, three volume diary of the period was published by Richard Crossman, after a lengthy court battle over the legality of such revelations, and this was followed in 1984 by a substantial single volume of diaries from Barbara Castle. Both were members of Harold Wilson’s Cabinet throughout the period. Then Tony Benn, a Cabinet member from 1966 to 1970, published two volumes of diaries on these years in the late 1980s.2 However, these were all on the left-wing of the party giving, perhaps, a skewed view of the debates at the centre of government. To achieve a balanced perspective more diary evidence from the centre and right of the Cabinet would be welcome. At least one right-wing minister, Denis Healey, kept a diary quite regularly and this has been used to help write both a memoir and a biography. But the diary itself remains unpublished and the entries in it evidently tend to be short and cryptic.3 Patrick Gordon Walker, an intermittent Cabinet member and a right-winger, kept a diary only fitfully during the government.4 But the diary of Michael Stewart, a party moderate has now been opened to researchers at Churchill College Archive Centre in Cambridge. This too is restricted in its time frame but it casts fresh light on a short, significant period in the Spring of 1968 when the government seemed on the brink of collapse and Stewart was faced with several difficult challenges as Foreign Secretary.

  • The IMF Crisis, 1976 Transcript
    The IMF Crisis, 1976 Transcript Date: Tuesday, 19 January 2016 - 6:00PM Location: Museum of London 19 January 2016 The IMF Crisis of 1976 Professor Vernon Bogdanor Ladies and gentlemen, this is the third lecture in a series on post-War political crises, and this lecture is on the 1976 crisis when Britain was forced to borrow money from the IMF, the International Monetary Fund, and in return, to allow IMF supervision of its economic policies. The then-Labour Government was divided on its response to the IMF terms and there was a long Cabinet battle before they were accepted, so the crisis was both an economic one and a political one. It has seemed for many to be a watershed, both in economics and in politics. In economic policy, it seemed there was a shift away from Keynesian methods of economic management, that is, the fine-tuning of the economy to control instability, inflation and unemployment, towards monetarism, which involved accepting a higher level of unemployment. But it was also a political, and in a sense an ideological, crisis because it seemed to be a crisis for the British version of social democracy, which relied on high levels of public spending to sustain the welfare state, and it prefigured the rise of Thatcherism and the long period of Conservative dominance which began in 1979. The crisis ended the post-War consensus on economic policy and prefigured the growth of a new consensus based around the idea of a limited state, so I think the crisis casts a shaft of light on the whole evolution of post-War economic policy.

  • British History Outlines the Labour Governments 1964
    Pre-U, Paper 1c: British History Outlines The Labour Governments 1964-70 Harold Wilson, and his governments, had a pretty mixed reputation at the time and that has been the case ever since. In part, that was because successful Labour leaders who occupy the centre-left of British politics (like Blair too) tend to be despised from two sides. In the first place, Conservatives find it very easy to viscerally hate them: many hated Wilson with a passion. That passion was, ironically, matched on the left, for whom Labour governments were, always, a disappointment. Wilson remains hard to pin down, a bit like a Lloyd George, and is often held to have had no fixed abode, no core beliefs or ideology. There is some element of truth in this. The quip he is remembered for is that ‘a week is a long time in politics’. He was certainly more of a fixer than visionary. But that was, in part, determined by circumstance. The visionary stuff had been done in 1945. The terms of the post-war consensus had been set. Like Macmillan before him, his primary task was managerial The 1964-66 government had a majority of 4 The government inherited very serious financial and economic problems, which would culminate in the devaluation of sterling in 1967 Labour had been bitterly divided in the ‘fifties. Gaitskell had seen off the hard left, but Wilson still led a party prone to division. His cabinet was made up of some highly capable men (and Barbara Castle), but it was also one particularly prone to divisions over policy, personality and ambition.
