Descriere completă

The Lib-Lab Pact examines the only formal cross-party understanding at Westminster between 1945-2010. Through the use of archival sources and unique interviews with key participants, this study brings new insights into how an agreement, short of a full coalition, came about, how it was administered, and its impact on both political parties. Jonathan Kirkup investigates the particular turn of events in 1977 which led to a Pact between Prime Minister, James Callaghan, and Liberal Party leader, David Steel. A review of the negotiating process reveals that David Steel might have achieved more policy concessions, specifically on electoral reform. The importance of Michael Foot in negotiating and administering the Pact is explored together with the intra-party conflict which ensued in the Liberal Party as policy objectives were not realized, ultimately threatened the position of Steel as leader. The legacy of the Pact is assessed, and how it influenced the strategy of the Liberal Party and Liberal Democrat politicians for the next thirty years.
