Signatur

As Chancellor o the Exchequer (1908–1915) in H. H. Asquith's tenur as Prime Meenister, Lloyd George wis a key feegur in the introduction o mony reforms that laid the foondations o the modren weelfare state. His maist important role cam as the heichly energetic Prime Meenister o the Wartime Coaleetion Govrenment (1916–22), in an immediately efter the First Warld War. He wis a major player at the Paris Peace Conference o 1919 that reordered Europe efter the defeat o the Central Pouers. Awtho he remeened Prime Meenister efter the 1918 general election, the Conservatives war the lairgest pairty in the coaleetion, wi the Leeberals split atween thae leal tae Lloyd George, an thae still supportin Asquith. He becam the leader o the Leeberal Pairty in the late 1920s, but it grew even smawer an mair dividit. Bi the 1930s he wis a marginalised an widely mistrustit feegur. He gae waik support tae the war effort in the Seicont Warld War amang fears that he wis favourable taewart Germany.

He wis votit the third-greatest Breetish prime meenister o the 20t century in a poll o 139 academics organised bi the mercat-resairch company MORI, an wis named amang the 100 Greatest Britons in a UK-wide vote in 2002.
