What did the first Labour government achieve?

In this week's episode, Lee & Richard look a little further back than usual to discuss the very first Labour government. Ramsay MacDonald 'kissed hands' upon his appointment as Prime Minister after Stanley Baldwin gambled his premiership on a snap election and lost the Conservatives' majority. But even so, Labour didn't have a majority of their own - and weren't even the largest party. So how did MacDonald become Prime Minister? What did his government achieve? How long did it last? And does this government have a legacy worth celebrating? In this episode, the following books are mentioned: 'Waiting for the Wave: The Reform Party and the Conservative Movement' by Tom Flanagan 'Britain’s First Labour Government' by John Shepherd & Keith Laybourn Enjoy ad-free listening, bonus episodes and show your support for the podcast by joining the Since Attlee & Churchill Patreon:   / sinceattleeandchurchill   Buying books via the Since Attlee & Churchill Bookshop is a great way to support the podcast.
