In 1923, Baldwin became prime minister and leader of the Conservative Party. After winning the 1924 general election, Baldwin formed his second government, which saw important tenures of office by Sir Austen Chamberlain (Foreign Secretary), Winston Churchill (at the Exchequer) and Neville Chamberlain (Health). His government saw the General Strike in 1926 and introduced the Trade Disputes and Trade Unions Act 1927 to curb the powers of trade unions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Baldwin (2022) International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHhbryony 8/31/2012 RAHAKIRKBRIDE 6/3/2025 39e1b88a-a2cd-495c-87c8-d350104f0689
