The General Strike of 1926

General strike in 1926 In 1926, the Union of Trade Unions (TUC) called for national workers for a nine-day general strike and caused the government to act so as not to affect the wages and conditions of coal miners I intended to do. There is no reason to explain why the general strike of 1926 occurred, but many long-term and short-term causes caused this event. An example of a long-term cause is the history of poor relations between mining owners and their workers. As a short-term reason, there is an article that triggered Samuel Report and Daily Mail.

Depending on the situation of miners, the general strike of 1926 began. Other workers realize that if they do not support miners, they may lower their wages as they did not see anything in the "Black Friday" incident. They knew that their demands should be met if they are united. They are the main reason for appealing the possibility of a general strike. Time is on the government side and their excellent preparation for the strike led to a government victory.

As Minister Churchill oversees the British devastating gold standard rebirth, invites defensive, unemployment, mining workers strikes that led to the 1926 general strike. The decision he announced in the 1924 budget was made at the end of long-term consultation. Various economists include John Maynard Keynes, Sir Otto Niemeyer, Treasury Secretary, and the Bank of England Board. This decision urged Keynes to write the economic impact of Mr. Churchill and argued that the return to the gold standard in 1925 before the war (1 pound = $ 4.86) would lead to a global economic downturn. However, this decision has been generally widespread, regardless of the opposition from Sir Beaverbrook and the British Industry Federation, regarded as "sound economics".

The year between the world wars of Churchill is characterized by political isolation. In the meantime, he made many mistakes and wrong judgments. The most important of these is his belligerent attitude towards the 1926 strike. Therefore, he can not simply be regarded as a popular leader, he never waits for his own fault. Churchill is the first volume of his war description, "I feel like I'm walking my fate, and my past life seems to be preparing for this time." I will. His best moment was consistent with British. His leadership expressed in noble speech and constant personal activity is exactly what is needed to survive in the year before England enters the war.
