The lives behind six legendary names - told by their biographers. 5: David Lloyd George
Written and presented by the distinguished political journalist and historian John Grigg
One contemporary called Lloyd George ' a siren - a goat-footed bard rooted in nothing'. Another called him ' the most dangerous man who ever lived '. Rising from the humble ranks of northern Welsh non-conformity, Lloyd George became the most dynamic and decisive politician of his day. No Chancellor created such hopes or such hatred; no Prime Minister exercised such power. Yet four years after the end of the war which many claimed he had won, he fell from office never to return. JOHN GRIGG , who was formerly Lord Altrincham and who can genuinely claim that Lloyd George knew his father, presents his view that this volatile Welshman was the most effective politician we have ever had in peace or war. It was largely due to him, he believes, that Britain, at a time of supreme world crisis, succumbed neither to military defeat nor to revolution.
