As the party that championed trade union rights, the creation of the NHS and the establishment of a national minimum wage, Labour has played a crucial role in the shaping of British society. And yet the leaders who have stood at its helm - from Keir Hardie to Sir Keir Starmer, via Clement Attlee, Tony Blair and Jeremy Corbyn - have steered the party vessel with enormously varying degrees of success.
The requirements, techniques and goals of the Labour leadership since the party's inception at the turn of the twentieth century have been forced to evolve almost beyond recognition - and not all its leaders have managed to keep up.
This comprehensive and enlightening book - now fully updated with chapters on all Labour leaders up to Keir Starmer and an assessment of the party's leadership in relation to Brexit - considers the attributes and achievements of each leader in the context of their respective time and diplomatic landscape. Offering a compelling analytical framework by which they may be judged, it also provides detailed personal biographies from some of the country's foremost political critics and exclusive interviews with former leaders themselves.
An indispensable contribution to the study of party leadership, British Labour Leaders is the essential guide to understanding British political history and governance.
