Baldwin Stanley

 

Baldwin Stanley (1867-1947). British Conservative statesman. After leaving Cambridge, Baldwin joined his father’s iron and steel business and did not enter Parliament until 1908. He served as chancellor of the exchequer under Bonar Law (1922-23) and was prime minister twice (1924-29; 1935-37). His calm handling of the General Strike (1926) and Edward VIII’s abdication (1936) made him popular, but he was blamed for Britain’s unpreparedness for war in 1939.
