[generalNote]: Hanes gweinyddol / Braslun bywgraffyddol | Administrative history | Biographical sketch Nodyn | Note James Griffiths (1890-1975), trade union leader and MP, became the first Secretary of State for Wales. He was born in Betws, Carmarthenshire, on 19 September 1890, the youngest of ten children who also included the poet 'Amanwy' (David Rees Griffiths, 1882-1953). Educated at Betws Board School, he left at the age of 13 to work at Ammanford No. 1 colliery (Gwaith Isa'r Betws), where he eventually became Lodge Secretary. He continued his education by attending night school. At work he became involved with the socialist movement, and helped establish a branch of the Independent Labour Party in Ammanford in 1908, soon becoming its secretary. He was also the secretary of the newly formed Ammanford Trades Council, 1916-1919. As a pacifist, he opposed World War One, and while campaigning on this issue, he met Winifred Rutley, who became his wife in 1918. He won a scholarship to the Central Labour College, London, 1919-1921. On returning home he worked as Llanelli Labour Party agent, 1922-1925, an agent for the Anthracite Miners' Association, 1925-1936, and President of the South Wales Miners' Federation ('the Fed'), 1934-1936. In 1936, he was elected Labour MP for Llanelli, joining the National Executive in Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru = The National Library of Wales Tudalen | Page 3 GB 0210 JAMTHS James Griffiths Papers, 1939. Following World War Two he was made Minister for National Insurance by Attlee, 1945-1950. In this capacity he introduced Family Allowances, a new Industrial Injuries Act, and the National Insurance Act 1948. He was also Chairman of the Labour Party, 1948-1949. He became Secretary of State for the Colonies in 1950. Within two years however the Labour Party was out of office. During the long period in opposition he was deputy leader of the Labour Party, 1955-1959, and spokesman on Welsh affairs. Having campaigned for a Secretary of State for Wales since the 1930s, Harold Wilson appointed him the first Secretary of State for Wales following Labour's 1964 General Election victory. He held the post until 1966. He published an autobiography, Pages From Memory (London: Dent, 1969), and retired from Parliament in 1970. He had two sons and two daughters. He died in Teddington, Richmond upon Thames, London, on 7 August 1975, aged 84, and was buried at the Christian Temple in Ammanford. He corresponded with Mary Silyn Roberts (née Parry), who was involved with Coleg Harlech in its early days.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath.

  • Consultation Response from Helen Davies, of the Byre, Medelfyw Road, Porthdafen, Felinfoel, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire SA14 8NX
    Consultation Response from Helen Davies, of The Byre, Medelfyw Road, Porthdafen, Felinfoel, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire SA14 8NX 31 May 2020 I have lived for over 50 years a short distance away on a small-holding within sight of, what is being described as “Zone C” of the proposed solar power plant. Despite the requirements of the Local Planning Authority for the developer to undertake a Residential Visual Amenity Assessment and despite my having raised objections in the first round of consultations on the grounds of residential visual amenity, no Residential Visual Amenity Assessment of my property was conducted. I still believe these proposals would be a disaster for the precious green belt around Llanelli, and a dangerous precedent. The proposed development is located on or adjacent to a landscape whose visual and sensory qualities have been objectively assessed as being of high quality under Landmap and the adverse impact on landscape is unacceptable. Whilst I support the principles of renewable energy – I believe that solar energy projects of this nature need to be appropriately sized and located, for example on the plentiful brownfield sites which are a legacy of South Wales’ industrial past. The sheer scale of this plan (230 acres of blue plastic 3m high panels and ancillary infrastructure, transformers, inverters, security fencing, CCTV cameras etc) will “industrialise” a very significant swathe of pristine rural landscape (which has been farmed productively for many years as an award winning organic farm) and blight an area of natural beauty that is enjoyed by thousands of residents from Llanelli, Llangennech, Llannon and Hendy, who drive, ride, cycle, jog and walk through its roads and public footpaths.

Churchill was “deselected” as Member of Parliament for Oldham after he defied its Conservative majority by becoming a Liberal in 1904. Denied the Tory nomination in Oldham for the general election of January 1905, he was invited to stand as a Liberal for North West Manchester, one of nine Manchester seats, with a tiny electorate of 10,000, a third of whom were Jewish. Churchill spoke strongly for Free Trade, popular in Manchester’s mill industries, and was duly elected. 1909 Batchelor, H. Crouch, compiler.

This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.
