Neville+Chamberlain


 * Neville Chamberlain **

Neville was the British Prime minister who supported the idea of appeasement during the time of Adolf Hitler's practice of expansionism. ​Neville was part of a family that was very influential in western democracy. His father Joseph Chamberlain was considered the most influential man in the British political life. His Brother Austen was awarded the Novel Piece prize for his contribution to the Locarno Pact. After Neville was elected to the Birmingham City Council and later Lord Mayor in 1915, he quickly began making an impact. He applied his Unitarian ways to polit i cal and social life. After becoming the Minister of Health and gaining a spot in the Cabinet he revolutionized the control of rents and housing for the poor. Not long after that he became the Chancellor of the Exchequer, becoming a key player in the British Government. He became the British Prime Minister in 1937. His political reputation was very high. He was kind of a control freak and did not like mistakes nor criticism. He made it very clear how much he did not like opposing Labor Parties.** Neville was believed to be a Unitarian which disturbed some people. Many were upset that such a good man considered himself agnostic and had no religious affiliation. This was often the topic of discussion. **

You mention that he "applied his Unitarian ways to political and social life" but you don't really back this up at all. As a reader, I have no idea what a Unitarian is or how he was influenced by it.I also think you should have expanded on welfare, etc.

Chamberlain suggested the four power conference known as the Munich conference as an effort to secure peace in Europe. Chamberlain practiced appeasement when it came to the topic of Germany. In fear that London would be bombed he agreed with Hitler and let him do as he wished until the invasion of Poland. Chamberlain issued Hitler with an ultimatum. If Germany continued to invade Poland then Germany and Poland would be at war. Germany declined the ultimatum therefore beginning World War II.
