| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Winston Churchill - After World War II Although the importance of Churchill's role in World War II was undeniable, he had many enemies in his own country. His expressed contempt for a number of popular ideas, in particular public health care and better education for the majority of the population, produced much dissatisfaction amongst the population, particularly those who had fought in the war. Immediately following the close of the war in Europe, Churchill was heavily defeated in the 1945 election by Clement Attlee and the Labour Party. Some historians think that many British v ...

| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Bedford Park Bronx New York - Culture Reflecting a population so greatly composed of foreign-born immigrants, there are distinct ethnic enclaves in Bedford Park. On 204th Street, between the Grand Concourse and Mosholu Parkway lies a small "Koreatown" in which a cluster of Korean restaurants, groceries, social clubs, and other businesses thrive.

| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Winston Churchill - Return to power In December 1916, Asquith resigned as Prime Minister and was replaced by Lloyd George. However, the time was thought not yet right to risk the Conservatives' wrath by bringing Churchill back into government. However, in July 1917 Churchill was appointed Minister of Munitions. After the end of the war Churchill served as both Secretary of State for War and Secretary of State for Air (1919–1921). On the possible use of gas weapons (tear gas) in quelling uprisings in the British mandated territories of the former Ottoman Empire, Churchill wro ...

| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Winston Churchill - Career between the wars In October 1922, Churchill underwent an operation to remove his appendix. Upon his return, he learned that the government had fallen and a General Election was looming. The Liberal Party was now beset by internal division and Churchill's campaign was weak. He lost his seat at Dundee to prohibitionist, Edwin Scrymgeour, quipping that he had lost his ministerial office, his seat and his appendix all at once. Churchill stood for the Liberals again in the 1923 general election, losing in Leicester, but over the next few months he moved towards t ...

| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Winston Churchill - Role as wartime Prime Minister At the outbreak of the Second World War Churchill was appointed First Lord of the Admiralty. In this job he proved to be one of the highest-profile ministers during the so-called "Phoney War", when the only noticeable action was at sea.

| | | | | Leonard Jerome: Encyclopedia II - Winston Churchill - Parliament After returning from South Africa Churchill again stood as a Conservative party candidate in Oldham, this time in the 1900 general election, or Khaki election.
He was duly elected but, rather than attending the opening of Parliament, he embarked on a speaking tour throughout the UK and USA, by means of which he raised ten thousand pounds for himself (members of parliament were unpaid in those days and Churchill was not rich by the standards of the time). While in the USA one of his speeches was introduced by Mark Twain and he dined with New York ...
