- W2245674003 abstract "This thesis is an examination of the early political career of John Henry Whitley and the success he achieved at a local parliamentary level. It examines how a local Liberal candidate was able to succeed amidst the rise of Labour within the town of Halifax. My work examines the political context of Liberalism’s battle with Labour and examines its impact on local politics within Halifax. Through combining these broader political aspects along with local factors specific to the town of Halifax, several questions arise with regard to Whitley’s success in 1900 and 1906. How did Whitley make the transition from local figure to Liberal political candidate and why was he chosen? How Liberalismadapt to the rise of Labour? What did the Liberals do on a local level to challenge this threat? What did Whitley specifically promote and represent to ensure his success in 1900 and 1906? Ultimately, my thesis aims to answer the questions of how and why did Whitley succeed amidst a time of political uncertainty for the Liberal party? Of the various aspects that culminated to Whitley’s success, two factors proved crucial for John Henry Whitley to succeed in 1900 and 1906. His local roots and stature gave him a valuable connection of support to the community of Halifax that largely set him apart from rival political candidates within Halifax. Secondly, and most crucially, Whitley was able to unite old Liberal principles with a fresh emerging Liberal thought that promoted the social reforms the working class demanded. This was critical at a time when Liberal working class support was threatened by the emergence of a growing Labour movement, particularly within Halifax.John Henry Whitley proved to be a Liberal who found the perfect balance between serving theLiberal creed he believed in and helping the community he represented." @default.
