After WWI, David Lloyd George led Britain through a challenging period of reconstruction from 1918-22. His coalition government... Show more
Lloyd George's government kicked off with some truly revolutionary changes that still shape Britain today. The Representation of the People Act 1918 massively expanded democracy - all men over 21 could now vote, plus women over 30 who met certain property requirements. This was a huge leap forward, even if it wasn't complete equality yet.
The coalition also tackled Britain's dire housing crisis through Addison's Housing Act 1919, which established the principle that government should help fund council housing. Around 200,000 homes were built by 1921, though this came at a steep cost. Meanwhile, the Unemployment Insurance Act 1920 created the famous 'dole' - weekly cash payments for unemployed people actively seeking work.
However, Britain's post-war economic crisis was brutal. Unemployment soared to over 1 million by 1922, inflation hit 25%, and the country had lost crucial export markets to America and Japan during the war. The coal industry was struggling, and returning soldiers found few jobs waiting for them.
Key Point The ambitious 'homes fit for heroes' promises had to be dramatically scaled back due to economic reality - leading to the harsh spending cuts known as the 'Geddes Axe' in 1922.
