The document discusses the rise of the Labour Party in Britain in response to the political demands of the working class. It summarizes that: The Reform Acts of the late 19th century expanded voting rights for working class men, who then demanded politicians address their concerns. In response, several political groups formed in the late 1800s to represent working class interests, culminating in the 1900 formation of the Labour Representation Committee, later known as the Labour Party. The Labour Party offered policies to attract working class support and argue they were not adequately represented in Parliament. While the Liberal Party was initially the main party of the working classes, the growth of Labour led them to promote social reforms to hold onto working class votes, though their concern for

Social Change in 20th Century Ireland
Rural life in Ireland has changed significantly from 1900 to present day. In 1900, most people lived in rural areas and worked as farmers, often living in poverty with poor housing conditions and lack of running water or electricity. Today, rural areas have access to modern amenities through rural electrification programs and Ireland's involvement in the EU has improved conditions for farmers through subsidies and infrastructure grants. Women's roles and status have also advanced greatly over this period, gaining more legal rights and access to education and employment opportunities formerly denied to them. Transportation and communication methods have been transformed from primarily walking, horses and early trains/trams to widespread automobile, air, and internet access today.
The Anglo-Irish Treaty
- Lloyd George invited de Valera to send negotiators to London to discuss a treaty to end the war in Ireland. De Valera refused to lead the delegation himself.
- The negotiations were contentious, with the British insisting Ireland remain within the British Empire and Irish delegates seeking full independence. Key points of contention were sovereignty, partition, and an oath of allegiance to the Crown.
- After two months of negotiations, the Irish delegates reluctantly agreed to and signed the Anglo-Irish Treaty in December 1921, establishing the Irish Free State with dominion status within the British Empire. However, this led to a split in Sinn Fein and soon after, a civil war in Ireland.
British cinema
The first British film produced was the 1888 short film "Roundhay Garden Scene". British cinema struggled in the 1920s due to competition from Hollywood films. The British film industry received a boost in 1927 with the Cinematograph Films Act, which required cinemas to show a minimum of 20% British films. Popular British actors include Sean Connery, Audrey Hepburn, and Alfred Hitchcock. British humor in films relies more on understatement and irony than slapstick comedy. Examples of popular British comedy and action genres are listed. The British film industry declined in the late 1960s through the 1990s due to economic troubles but has seen renewed success in the 21st century with films like the Harry Potter series.

Anglo irish treaty 1921
The document summarizes the negotiations that led to the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921. It describes the main issues debated, including Ireland's relationship with the British Empire, the status of Northern Ireland, and British defense requirements. The Irish delegation had ambiguous instructions and was divided on issues like compromising on a republic. After two months of negotiations and threats of war from Lloyd George, the Irish signed the treaty on December 6th, recognizing King George as head of the Irish Free State but partitioning Ireland and leaving Northern Ireland out.
Belfast Blitz 1941
- The document discusses Belfast during World War 2, including its strategic importance due to its naval facilities and shipbuilding industry, and the devastating Belfast Blitz of April 1941 where German bombing killed over 1,100 people.
- During two nights of bombing in April 1941, waves of German planes dropped high explosives and incendiary bombs across Belfast, especially hitting working class areas and an air raid shelter, causing widespread damage and casualties.
- The Blitz had long term effects of consolidating Northern Ireland's position within the UK and further distancing the neutral Republic of Ireland, as well as stimulating postwar rebuilding efforts and investment.
Jarrow march 1936
The document summarizes the Jarrow Crusade, a protest march that took place in Britain in 1936. Unemployment had reached high levels in Jarrow, a town in northeast England, after the closure of the shipbuilding yard. To protest the lack of action by the government, 200 unemployed men from Jarrow embarked on a 300-mile march to London to present a petition to Parliament. The disciplined 25-day march gained widespread support along its route. While there were no immediate results, the Crusade brought attention to the economic struggles facing communities like Jarrow and had long-term political impacts.
Sunningdale Agreement
The document summarizes the Sunningdale Agreement of 1973 which aimed to establish power-sharing in Northern Ireland between unionists and nationalists. It established an executive and assembly with cross-community power-sharing, as well as a Council of Ireland to foster cooperation between Ireland and Northern Ireland. However, hardline unionists opposed the agreement and formed the United Ulster Unionist Council to resist it. In May 1974, they called a strike by Protestant workers that crippled Northern Ireland's economy and infrastructure, ultimately causing the agreement to collapse and the executive to resign.

Ronnie spent his remaining years in a secure hospital due to insanity, while Reggie died in prison in 2000.
Obstacles to german unification austria strength
Until 1848, Austria dominated the German Confederation and opposed German unification as it threatened its multi-ethnic empire. Austria was also wary of Prussian dominance over a unified Germany given their religious differences and Prussia's exclusion of Austria from the Zollverein trade agreement. The 1848 revolutions weakened Austria's position and while it initially chaired unification attempts, once order was restored Austria withdrew support to defeat unification, though other states also opposed a fully united Germany for their own interests.
The rise of sinn fein
Sinn Fein grew rapidly after the 1916 Easter Rising when the British government mistakenly blamed the rebellion on the party. Membership increased tenfold as republican prisoners released from internment camps joined and helped organize Sinn Fein. In elections in 1917-1918, Sinn Fein established itself as the leading nationalist party in Ireland, winning seats and further growth. The British government's failed attempts to introduce conscription and claim Sinn Fein collaborated with Germany only increased Irish support for the republican party. In the 1918 general election held after World War 1, Sinn Fein captured 73 seats, becoming the dominant force in Irish politics.

Nuremberg rallies
The document provides details about the annual Nazi propaganda rallies held in Nuremberg, Germany between 1927-1939. It describes how Hitler wanted to associate the Nazis with Germany's past glory by hosting the rallies in the important city of Nuremberg. Over time, the rallies grew enormously in scale and spectacle, featuring massive crowds, military displays, and speeches by Hitler and Goebbels. Leni Riefenstahl's famous propaganda films "Triumph of the Will" and "Day of Freedom" were used to document the 1934 and 1935 rallies respectively. The 1935 rally also saw the passage of the Nuremberg Laws which stripped Jews of their citizenship and rights in Germany.
WWI women
The war created new opportunities for women's employment outside the home as traditional male jobs became available due to labor shortages from conscription. While women faced resistance initially, by 1915 thousands worked in munitions factories and other industries. After the war, women were expected to return to traditional roles but had gained some independence, and their participation in the workforce helped pave the way for women's suffrage and rights in the early 20th century.
English Civil War

World war II in Northern Ireland
World War II had a significant impact on Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland played an important role in Britain's war effort by producing ships, aircrafts, linen and food. However, Belfast suffered extensive bomb damage during the Belfast Blitz of 1941, with over 900 deaths. The war economy led to a boom in Northern Ireland's industry and agriculture. After the war, Northern Ireland benefited from closer ties to Britain and the establishment of the British welfare state, while a growing economic divide opened up between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in the south.

War of independence
The First Dáil was established in 1919 by Sinn Féin members who refused to take seats in the British House of Commons. They began organizing their own government and courts in Ireland. The War of Independence began in 1919 with an IRA ambush of British forces. The IRA used guerrilla tactics against the British army. Michael Collins established an intelligence network to gather information on British spies and informers. As the conflict escalated, the British recruited the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries, whose reprisal attacks harmed many innocent Irish civilians.

Lloyd George, who experienced poverty as a child, introduced the People's Budget in 1909 to raise taxes on the wealthy and fund welfare reforms, but the House of Lords rejected it, leading the Liberals to call two elections in 1910 to curb the Lords' power over finances.

The document provides background information on changes in British society from 1906-1918. It discusses how the Liberal government introduced reforms to help children, the elderly, and unemployed workers. It also examines the campaign for women's suffrage and the roles of suffragists and suffragettes. Finally, it analyzes how British civilians were impacted during World War 1 through conscription, government control of industries, and food rationing.
Women and the vote - party advantage
For years, the Liberal party had rejected extending voting rights to women by opposing bills to grant wealthier women the right to vote and passing laws against women's suffrage protests. However, the Liberal-led government finally granted some women the right to vote in 1918, likely due to fears of losing votes to the Labour party, which supported women's suffrage, and because the new Prime Minister David Lloyd George was more receptive to reform as a New Liberal.
Democracy in Britain - more political party choice
This page discusses changes which helped introduce more political party choice to Britain, examining the strengths and weaknesses of these reforms in achieving democracy.
The Liberal Reform Movement
The Liberal Reform Movement sought to address social problems in Britain through new laws and public programs. Studies had shown that nearly a third of the population lived in poverty and could not afford healthcare or adequate housing. The Liberal Party implemented programs like free school meals, medical inspections in schools, old age pensions, unemployment benefits, and national insurance to help the poor and those unable to work due to illness, disability, or old age. However, these new social welfare programs were opposed by some who felt they taxed the rich too much or limited existing private organizations from making as much money.
Higher history revision notes britain 1851-1951
Britain became more democratic from 1851-1951 due to several factors:
1. Industrialization and urbanization transformed society and led to the rise of a middle and working class who demanded more political rights.
2. Pressure groups like the Chartists and Suffragettes campaigned for democratic reforms such as expanding the right to vote.
3. Political parties supported reforms in order to gain more voters, and were concerned other parties would outflank them on democratic issues.
4. World War 1 saw women take on new roles in industry and society, increasing pressure for women's suffrage which was then granted.
Reasons for British democratic changes - party advantage
Political parties in the UK supported expanding voting rights in 1867 and 1918 partly to gain more voters. In 1867, the Conservatives proposed granting some working-class men the right to vote in an attempt to appeal to more voters. Similarly, in 1918 the Liberal government extended voting rights to more men and some women in hopes of attracting working-class support away from the growing Labour party. However, political advantage was not the only factor as some Liberals also genuinely supported broader voting rights.
Migration and Empire - political impact of immigration on Scotland
Immigration had a political impact on Scotland in four main areas: trade unions, political parties, pressure groups, and voting/elections. Irish immigrants either set up or joined trade unions like the Glasgow Cotton Spinners Association to improve working conditions. Politically, the Irish often supported the Liberal Party and its goals like Irish Home Rule, and some became involved in the new Scottish Labour Party. As members of pressure groups like the Chartists, the Irish participated in many political campaigns to expand democracy in Britain in the 1800s. When given the right to vote in 1918, Irish immigrants tended to support the Liberal Party and later the Scottish Labour Party in elections.
Ocr paper 2 student revision booklet
This document provides an overview of reforms and changes that occurred in British society between 1890 and 1918. It begins by describing poor living conditions and charity work for the poor in 1890. It then discusses various social reformers like the Booths and Rowntree who studied poverty and helped spur government reforms. A key reason for Liberal reforms was better knowledge of social problems from groups like this. The 1906 election was a landslide for the Liberals who then began passing social legislation. Key reforms addressed education, health care for children, unemployment, and old age pensions. Opposition came from those who felt reforms went too far. Women gained political and social rights over this period, with suffragettes campaigning for the vote using militant tactics

British social history revision booklet guilsborough
The social reformers of the 1890s, such as Booth, Rowntree and Galt, conducted studies that showed poverty in Britain was widespread and mostly caused by low wages and illness rather than laziness. Their work raised awareness of the scale of poverty and its causes. In response, the Liberal government of 1906-1914 introduced several reforms to help children, the elderly, workers and the unemployed, including free school meals, old age pensions, labour exchanges and national insurance. While these reforms provided significant help, they also faced criticism for being too limited in scope and for discouraging self-reliance. The effectiveness of the reforms was debated, but they marked an important change in attitudes toward greater state intervention to aid the poor.
Making of Modern Britain 1880-1951 - changing attitudes towards poverty
Social attitudes towards helping the poor began to change in the early 1900s for several reasons: (1) surveys found that over 25% of people lived in poverty, undermining the idea that poverty was their fault; (2) national security concerns arose due to many potential soldiers being unfit, threatening Britain's ability to fight future wars; (3) national efficiency was threatened as other countries industrialized more rapidly. These factors, along with the rise of labor politics and demonstrations of effective local policies, led politicians and the public to become more supportive of government assistance for the poor.
Making of Modern Britain 1880-1951 - labour reforms (background)
The Labour Party unexpectedly won the 1945 UK general election led by Clement Attlee, taking control of the government from Winston Churchill. Labour introduced major social reforms between 1945-1951 aimed at reducing poverty and hardship, including establishing the National Health Service and creating new towns. This established the "welfare state" where the government took an active role in supporting citizens through services and money. However, Labour's reforms faced some opposition and economic challenges due to the costs as Britain recovered from World War 2.
Reasons for democracy
Britain became a democracy due to multiple factors including the Industrial Revolution, pressure from other countries adopting democracy, pressure groups campaigning for voting rights, increased education and access to newspapers, World War 1, and political parties seeking more votes. The Industrial Revolution transformed society and inspired demands for political change, while World War 1 and women's war efforts led to extending voting rights to more men and some women in 1918. However, other factors like the establishment resisting change slowed Britain's transition to a full democracy.
U.S. Labor Movement
This document summarizes the rise of trade unions and labor movements in the 19th and 20th centuries in the United States.

It also summarizes the merger that formed the Liberal Democrats and their embrace of progressive liberalism.
How british society changed 1890 1918 rev
This document outlines key political and social reforms that occurred in Britain between 1890-1918. It discusses the formation of the Labour Party in 1900 and liberal reforms passing acts like free school meals, old age pensions, and national insurance. It also covers the growing women's suffrage movement and actions taken by suffragettes to gain voting rights for women, as well as the impact of World War 1 on British society through conscription, women entering the workforce, and propaganda efforts.
Unit 5.4 political reform
The old British electoral system was unfair, with only 400,000 of a population of 16 million able to vote in 1832. Rotten boroughs allowed landowners to choose MPs despite few or no residents. The Great Reform Act of 1832 expanded suffrage to more wealthy men and abolished rotten boroughs. However, the Chartist movement demanded further reforms, including universal male suffrage. Full male suffrage was achieved in 1884, while women obtained suffrage in the early 20th century due to activists like Emmeline Pankhurst.
Political Parties of Australia
The document summarizes the three main political parties in Australia:
1) The Labor Party is Australia's oldest party, formed in 1891 to represent workers. It has had several Prime Ministers and has shifted between socialist and pragmatic ideologies.
2) The Liberal Party formed in 1944 to provide an alternative to Labor. It is currently the most successful post-war party and follows a conservative liberal ideology focused on individual freedoms and a market economy.
3) The Greens emerged from environmental campaigns and gained representation in the 1980s. Their ideology focuses on ecological sustainability, social justice, and non-violence.
The Progressive Era
The Progressive Era began in the early 1900s in response to the immense economic and social changes brought about by industrialization. There was a rise of muckraking journalists who exposed issues in government and big business. Progressive reforms took hold at the municipal, state, and federal levels across four main areas: protecting social welfare, promoting moral reform, reforming the economy, and making businesses more efficient. Theodore Roosevelt championed these reforms as president from 1901-1909, pushing for regulation of big business and conservation. The split of the Republican Party over further reforms led to the election of Democrat Woodrow Wilson, who advanced some progressive policies.

Sources A and B provide differing interpretations of the early growth of Protestantism in Scotland in the 1550s-1560s. Source A emphasizes that many Scots were dissatisfied with the Catholic Church and open to Protestant ideas due to works criticizing the Catholic Church. Source B stresses the impact of Protestant preachers like John Knox and the support of powerful lords and the passing of laws against Protestant literature.
Source C outlines the Second Book of Discipline's vision of an independent Kirk governed by presbyteries and assemblies rather than bishops or the Crown. It notes James VI's opposition to these plans in 1581, with Presbyterians believing the King should submit to the Kirk, while the King and nobility disagreed
Higher Migration and Empire - reasons for emigrant scots' success
The document discusses reasons for the success of many emigrant Scots in building new lives in other parts of the British Empire from 1830-1939. It states that Scots often succeeded due to factors like their nationality, English language abilities, education levels, reputation for hard work, skills in demanded fields, establishment of businesses and communities, and support from the British government and other Scots abroad. However, not all emigrant Scots found success, as some faced problems like poverty, unemployment, and loneliness in their new homes.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Education
The 1944 Education Act aimed to improve education access and outcomes in Britain. It raised the compulsory school leaving age to 15, providing all children a minimum of secondary education. At age 11, children took an exam that determined if they attended an academic-focused senior secondary school or trades-focused junior secondary school. However, the exam system was criticized for penalizing poorer students and determining children's futures too early. Labour also introduced new school buildings to replace those damaged in war and accommodate growing student populations, though secondary schools remained outdated in many areas.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Health
The NHS was established in 1948 by the 1945-51 British government to provide universal healthcare access, treating all medical problems freely at the point of use based on need rather than ability to pay. It aimed to eliminate disease by offering healthcare to all British citizens, over half of whom previously lacked medical coverage. While popular, the NHS also proved very expensive to run and faced initial shortages of hospital facilities and medical staff that limited treatment effectiveness and access.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Housing
The New Towns Act of 1946 aimed to tackle overcrowding and improve housing conditions in Britain by building new towns with homes. 14 new towns were established by 1951, moving people from city slums to new communities built in the countryside. However, these new towns initially lacked jobs and local facilities, requiring long commutes. Additionally, while the government set targets to build over 1 million new homes by 1951, housing shortages remained an issue as only around 800,000 new houses were completed. Prefabricated housing provided a temporary solution to the shortage but was meant to last only 10 years though many prefab homes stood for decades.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Poverty
The Family Allowances Act of 1946 provided weekly payments to mothers with two or more children to help families struggling financially, especially those where fathers had died in war. However, it did not help families with only one child and payments stopped at age 18. The National Insurance Act of 1946 built on previous acts to provide benefits like sickness, unemployment, old age pensions and other benefits by requiring weekly contributions from working-age people. However, the poorest still struggled to pay and the National Assistance Act of 1948 provided additional financial help for these individuals. Studies in York in 1936 and 1950 showed poverty levels falling from 36% to only 2% due to these welfare programs but benefits did not always keep up with inflation.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Unemployment
The Labour government nationalized several key industries like coal mining, steel production, electricity, and railways between 1946-1948. This was done to ensure these important industries were controlled by the country rather than private companies. Owners were compensated for the nationalized industries. Nationalization allowed the government to use tax money to fund unprofitable businesses and increase apprenticeships to reduce unemployment. However, nationalization was very costly and this high cost reduced funds available for other issues. Labour also introduced policies aimed at improving working conditions for workers through measures like paid holidays and secure jobs at docks. While some workers saw higher wages and better conditions, it may have discouraged companies from hiring more employees as it increased costs. Labour's home

Reasons for the Liberal Social Reforms - Rise of the Labour Party
- 2. Working class votes The Reform Acts of 1832, 1867 and 1884 had made big changes to British politics. Working class men that could now vote demanded that politicians listened to them. This meant dealing with the poor’s concerns – even if the party did not genuinely support this (political advantage).
- 3. Working class groups In the late-1800s, different political groups were set up to represent working class interests. This included the Independent Labour Party, the Social Democratic Federation and the Fabian Society. In 1900, these groups worked together to form the Labour Representation Committee.
- 4. The Labour Party The establishment of the Labour Representation Committee gave working class men their own authentic voice. The Labour Party (as it became known in 1906) offered a variety of policies aimed to attract working class support. They argued that workers were not represented in Parliament – but should be.
- 6. The Labour Party The 1906 Labour election manifesto made various promises to working men, including: •An eight-hour working day for all workers •Building more and better housing to tackle overcrowding •Ensure that trade unions could campaign for their members
- 7. The Labour Party Labour’s rise led to Liberal worries. The Liberals usually attracted working class votes, so a working class party might take away a lot of their support. The need to keep working class votes may have forced the Liberals to back social reforms.
- 8. The Labour Party In 1906, David Lloyd George gave a speech where he said: “I warn you about the Labour Party. I warn you it will become a terrifying force that will sweep away Liberalism. We must eliminate the widespread poverty which scars this land … otherwise the working men of Britain will vote Labour instead of Liberal.”
- 9. 1906 Manifesto However it is too simple to say that the Liberals only brought in reforms to beat Labour. One major point to consider is that in the 1906 General Election the Liberal manifesto makes almost no mention of social reforms. This suggests the issue is of limited importance.
- 10. Labour progress Over time, Labour became a much more important and successful political party. Labour had two MPs in 1900, rising to 29 MPs in 1906 and then 42 MPs by 1910. In terms of votes, this made Labour the third biggest party in Britain by 1910.
- 11. Labour progress In the 1910 election, although the Liberals gained most MPs, they actually had fewer votes than the Conservatives. Many traditional Liberal voters had left them to instead vote Labour. David Lloyd George said that Liberal action was need to stop “this electoral rot” meaning a need to act to beat Labour.
- 12. Labour’s influence? Many Liberal Reforms were only expanded and improved after Labour’s 1910 success. Free schools was only optional in 1906, however this was made compulsory in 1914. Medical inspections were started in 1907 but it was not until 1912 that free treatment was added.
- 13. Labour’s influence However in 1910 the Liberals were still the party that gained most working class support, winning 274 MPs in January’s general election. This suggests they did not need to worry about Labour as they remained the main choice for poorer voters.
- 14. Labour and Liberal pact In 1903, Herbert Gladstone of the Liberal Party made a deal with the Labour Representation Committee’s Ramsay MacDonald. This pact said that the Liberals would not stand against Labour in areas with lots of working class voters. This aimed to stop the anti- Conservative vote being split.
- 15. Labour and Liberal pact The fact that the Liberals agreed this pact with shows that they were worried about the threat Labour posed to their working class support. Their reforms may therefore have been in the hope of keeping this support.
- 16. Labour and Liberal pact The Liberals’ main rivals for forming a government remained the Conservatives. Making a deal with Labour shows the Liberals did not genuinely see Labour as a major threat, instead a group that they needed to work with.
