Charting the rise and fall of the formerly mighty Liberal Party


BARRING unforeseen circumstances, the Scottish LibDems will shortly elect Alex Cole-Hamilton as their new leader.
Cole-Hamilton is arguably only in the Holyrood Parliament because the Tories in his Edinburgh Western seat voted tactically, as did Labour voters in the constituency in 2016, all to keep out the SNP.
In strictly historical terms, the Scottish Liberal Democrats are the successors to the Liberal Party which dominated Scottish politics for much of the late 19th century and early 20th century. They once had truly great men in their ranks including two of the greatest Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom, William Ewart Gladstone and Sir Winston Spencer Churchill. Two other Liberal MPs for Scottish seats, Herbert Henry Asquith and Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, also made it to No 10, Asquith holding his East Fife seat for 30 years while Campbell-Bannerman remains the only PM born in Glasgow. ....

1. Under the clouds
 
I left home in Fife and went to live in Glasgow when I was eighteen. When I think of it now, the distance seems laughably small – forty miles, little more than an hour in the train – but the contrast between a village on the east coast and a city, Scotland’s largest, on the west coast was sharp and exciting. I had a bedsit in a dark street of better-class tenements, with a Polish delicatessen, a dance hall and a cinema just round the corner. Glasgow seemed an infinite place, never to be known completely no matter how many suburban bus terminals you reached or exploratory walks you made. It was 1963. The last trams had run the year before, but the city was still much its old self – smoke-blackened, run-down, Victorian, majestic, tipsy on beer and whisky on a Saturday night, hushed on a Sunday. More than a million people lived there then; forty years later, that figure had almost halved. ....

King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra in their coronation robes.
“What fools we were,” King George V told his prime minister, Ramsay MacDonald, in 1930, looking back to the era before World War I. In the context of the wartime catastrophe his generation had delivered, the king may have had a point. That was the time of Rudyard Kipling’s “long recessional” and A. E. Housman’s “land of lost content.” Arthur Balfour, prime minister from 1902 to 1905, lamented “some process of social degeneration” that “may conveniently be distinguished by the name of ‘decadence.’” Joseph Chamberlain, the most charismatic politician of the late-Victorian age, put it more pithily. “The Weary Titan,” he said in 1902, “staggers under the too vast orb of its fate.” ....

Rev James Irwin was also a fervent supporter of Home Rule.

An early 20th century ecclesiastical split on the issue of Home Rule sparked a chain of events which led to a County Derry Presbyterian minister eventually turning down a run at the Irish presidency.
Rev. James Alexander Hamilton Irwin, born in Feeny and educated at Magee College in Derry, became a Presbyterian minister when he was ordained at Killead, County Antrim, in 1903.
He served the ministry for 23 years, but the love, but it was his actions in the years that followed that saw him forgo the love, fellowship and comfortable retirement such a stint usually provided. ....
