statesman, <a href="/wiki/Conservative_Party_(UK)" title="Conservative Party (UK)">Conservative</a> politician and writer who twice served as <a href="/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Prime Minister of the United Kingdom">Prime Minister of the United Kingdom</a>. He played a central role in the creation of the <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Conservative_Party_(UK)" title="History of the Conservative Party (UK)">modern Conservative Party</a>, defining its policies and its broad outreach. Disraeli is remembered for his influential voice in world affairs, his political battles with the <a href="/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)" title="Liberal Party (UK)">Liberal Party</a> leader <a href="/wiki/William_Ewart_Gladstone" title="William Ewart Gladstone">William Ewart Gladstone</a>, and his <a href="/wiki/One-nation_conservatism" title="One-nation conservatism">one-nation conservatism</a> or "Tory democracy". He made the Conservatives the party most identified with the <a href="/wiki/British_Empire" title="British Empire">British Empire</a> and military action to expand it, both of which were popular among British voters. He is the only British Prime Minister to have been <a href="/wiki/British_Jews" title="British Jews">born Jewish</a>. Disraeli was born in <a href="/wiki/Bloomsbury" title="Bloomsbury">Bloomsbury</a>, then a part of <a href="/wiki/Middlesex" title="Middlesex">Middlesex</a>. His father left Judaism after a dispute at his <a href="/wiki/Synagogue" title="Synagogue">synagogue</a>; Benjamin became an <a href="/wiki/Anglicanism" title="Anglicanism">Anglican</a> at the age of 12. After several unsuccessful attempts, Disraeli entered the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Commons_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="House of Commons of the United Kingdom">House of Commons</a> in 1837. In 1846, Prime Minister <a href="/wiki/Robert_Peel" title="Robert Peel">Robert Peel</a> split the party over his proposal to repeal the <a href="/wiki/Corn_Laws" title="Corn Laws">Corn Laws</a>, which involved ending the tariff on imported grain. Disraeli clashed with Peel in the House of Commons, becoming a major figure in the party. When <a href="/wiki/Edward_Smith-Stanley,_14th_Earl_of_Derby" title="Edward Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby">Lord Derby</a>, the party leader, thrice formed governments in the 1850s and 1860s, Disraeli served as <a href="/wiki/Chancellor_of_the_Exchequer" title="Chancellor of the Exchequer">Chancellor of the Exchequer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Leader_of_the_House_of_Commons" title="Leader of the House of Commons">Leader of the House of Commons</a>. Upon Derby's retirement in 1868, Disraeli became prime minister briefly before losing that year's general election. He returned to the Opposition before leading the party to a majority in the 1874 general election. He maintained a close friendship with <a href="/wiki/Queen_Victoria" title="Queen Victoria">Queen Victoria</a> who, in 1876, elevated him to the peerage, as <a href="/wiki/Earl_of_Beaconsfield" title="Earl of Beaconsfield">Earl of Beaconsfield</a>. Disraeli's second term was dominated by the <a href="/wiki/Eastern_question" title="Eastern question">Eastern question</a>—the slow decay of the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Empire" title="Ottoman Empire">Ottoman Empire</a> and the desire of other European powers, such as Russia, to gain at its expense. Disraeli arranged for the British to purchase a major interest in the <a href="/wiki/Suez_Canal_Company" class="mw-redirect" title="Suez Canal Company">Suez Canal Company</a> in Egypt. In 1878, faced with <a href="/wiki/Russo-Turkish_War_(1877%E2%80%931878)" title="Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878)">Russian victories against the Ottomans</a>, he worked at the <a href="/wiki/Congress_of_Berlin" title="Congress of Berlin">Congress of Berlin</a> to obtain peace in the Balkans at terms favourable to Britain and unfavourable to Russia, its longstanding enemy. This diplomatic victory established Disraeli as one of Europe's leading statesmen. World events thereafter moved against the Conservatives. Controversial wars in <a href="/wiki/Second_Anglo-Afghan_War" title="Second Anglo-Afghan War">Afghanistan</a> and <a href="/wiki/Anglo-Zulu_War" title="Anglo-Zulu War">South Africa</a> undermined his public support. He angered farmers by refusing to reinstitute the <a href="/wiki/Corn_Laws" title="Corn Laws">Corn Laws</a> in response to poor harvests and cheap imported grain. With Gladstone conducting <a href="/wiki/Midlothian_campaign" title="Midlothian campaign">a massive speaking campaign</a>, the Liberals defeated Disraeli's Conservatives at <a href="/wiki/1880_United_Kingdom_general_election" title="1880 United Kingdom general election">the 1880 general election</a>. In his final months, Disraeli led the Conservatives in Opposition. Disraeli wrote novels throughout his career, beginning in 1826, and published his last completed novel, <a href="/wiki/Endymion_(Disraeli_novel)" title="Endymion (Disraeli novel)">Endymion</a>, shortly before he died at the age of 76. <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r886046785">.mw-parser-output .toclimit-2 .toclevel-1 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-3 .toclevel-2 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-4 .toclevel-3 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-5 .toclevel-4 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-6 .toclevel-5 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-7 .toclevel-6 ul{display:none}</style><div class="toclimit-3"><meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Early life">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Childhood">Childhood</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Childhood">edit</a>]</div> Disraeli was born on 21 December 1804 at 6 King's Road, Bedford Row, <a href="/wiki/Bloomsbury" title="Bloomsbury">Bloomsbury</a>, London,<a href="#cite_note-4">[n 1]</a> the second child and eldest son of <a href="/wiki/Isaac_D%27Israeli" title="Isaac D'Israeli">Isaac D'Israeli</a>, a literary critic and historian, and Maria (Miriam), née Basevi.<a href="#cite_note-b3-2">[2]</a> The family was mostly from Italy, of <a href="/wiki/Sephardic_Jews" title="Sephardic Jews">Sephardic Jewish</a> mercantile background.<a href="#cite_note-academia.edu-5">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-6">[n 2]</a> He also had some <a href="/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jews" title="Ashkenazi Jews">Ashkenazi Jewish</a> ancestors.<a href="#cite_note-7">[5]</a> He later romanticised his origins, claiming his father's family was of grand <a href="/wiki/Iberian_Peninsula" title="Iberian Peninsula">Iberian</a> and <a href="/wiki/Venice" title="Venice">Venetian</a> descent; in fact, Isaac's family was of no great distinction,<a href="#cite_note-Blake_(1967),_p._6-8">[6]</a> but on Disraeli's mother's side, in which he took no interest, there were some distinguished forebears, including <a href="/wiki/Isaac_Cardoso" title="Isaac Cardoso">Isaac Cardoso</a>, as well as members of the <a href="/wiki/Goldsmid_family" title="Goldsmid family">Goldsmids</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Mocatta" title="Mocatta">Mocattas</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Montefiore_(surname)" title="Montefiore (surname)">Montefiores</a>.<a href="#cite_note-9">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-10">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-12">[n 3]</a> Historians differ on Disraeli's motives for rewriting his family history: Bernard Glassman argues that it was intended to give him status comparable to that of England's ruling elite;<a href="#cite_note-13">[10]</a> <a href="/wiki/Sarah_Bradford" title="Sarah Bradford">Sarah Bradford</a> believes "his dislike of the commonplace would not allow him to accept the facts of his birth as being as middle-class and undramatic as they really were".<a href="#cite_note-14">[11]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Isaac-miriam-sarah-d%27israeli-125px.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Three portraits; a man and two women" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Isaac-miriam-sarah-d%27israeli-125px.jpg/110px-Isaac-miriam-sarah-d%27israeli-125px.jpg" decoding="async" width="110" height="333" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/24/Isaac-miriam-sarah-d%27israeli-125px.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="125" data-file-height="378" /></a><figcaption>Disraeli's father, mother and sister—<a href="/wiki/Isaac_D%27Israeli" title="Isaac D'Israeli">Isaac</a>, Maria and Sarah</figcaption></figure> Disraeli's siblings were Sarah, Naphtali (born and died 1807), Ralph and James ("Jem").

The new paper, <a href="/wiki/The_Representative_(newspaper)" title="The Representative (newspaper)">The Representative</a>, promoted the mines and those politicians who supported them, particularly Canning. Disraeli impressed Murray with his energy and commitment to the project, but he failed in his key task of persuading the eminent writer <a href="/wiki/John_Gibson_Lockhart" title="John Gibson Lockhart">John Gibson Lockhart</a> to edit the paper. After that, Disraeli's influence on Murray waned, and to his resentment he was sidelined in the affairs of The Representative.<a href="#cite_note-b16-50">[43]</a> The paper survived only six months, partly because the mining <a href="/wiki/Stock_market_bubble" title="Stock market bubble">bubble</a> burst in late 1825, and partly because, according to Blake, the paper was "atrociously edited".<a href="#cite_note-51">[44]</a> The bursting of the mining bubble was ruinous for Disraeli. By June 1825 he and his business partners had lost £7,000. Disraeli could not pay off the last of his debts from this debacle until 1849.<a href="#cite_note-dnb-52">[45]</a> He turned to writing, motivated partly by his desperate need for money, and partly by a wish for revenge on Murray and others by whom he felt slighted.<a href="#cite_note-53">[46]</a> There was a vogue for what was called "silver-fork fiction"—novels depicting aristocratic life, usually by anonymous authors, read by the aspirational middle classes.<a href="#cite_note-54">[47]</a> Disraeli's first novel, <a href="/wiki/Vivian_Grey" title="Vivian Grey">Vivian Grey</a>, published anonymously in four volumes in 1826–27, was a thinly veiled re-telling of the affair of The Representative.<a href="#cite_note-dxii-55">[48]</a> It sold well, but caused much offence in influential circles when the authorship was discovered.<a href="#cite_note-dxii-55">[48]</a> Disraeli, then just 23, did not move in high society, as the numerous <a href="/wiki/Solecism" title="Solecism">solecisms</a> in his book made obvious. Reviewers were sharply critical on these grounds of both the author and the book. Murray and Lockhart, men of great influence in literary circles, believed that Disraeli had caricatured them and abused their confidence—an accusation denied by the author but repeated by many of his biographers.<a href="#cite_note-56">[49]</a> In later editions Disraeli made many changes, softening his satire, but the damage to his reputation proved long-lasting.<a href="#cite_note-dnb-52">[45]</a> Disraeli's biographer Jonathan Parry writes that the financial failure and personal criticism that Disraeli suffered in 1825 and 1826 were probably the trigger for a serious nervous crisis affecting him over the next four years: "He had always been moody, sensitive, and solitary by nature, but now became seriously depressed and lethargic."<a href="#cite_note-dnb-52">[45]</a> He was still living with his parents in London, but in search of the "change of air" recommended by the family's doctors, Isaac took a succession of houses in the country and on the coast, before Disraeli sought wider horizons.<a href="#cite_note-57">[50]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1830–1837">1830–1837</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: 1830–1837">edit</a>]</div> Together with his sister's fiancé, William Meredith, Disraeli travelled widely in southern Europe and beyond in 1830–31.<a href="#cite_note-59">[n 8]</a> The trip was financed partly by another high society novel, The Young Duke, written in 1829–30. The tour was cut short suddenly by Meredith's death from smallpox in Cairo in July 1831.<a href="#cite_note-61">[n 9]</a> Despite this tragedy, and the need for treatment for a sexually transmitted disease on his return, Disraeli felt enriched by his experiences. He became, in Parry's words, "aware of values that seemed denied to his insular countrymen. The journey encouraged his self-consciousness, his moral relativism, and his interest in Eastern racial and religious attitudes."<a href="#cite_note-dnb-52">[45]</a> Blake regards the tour as one of the formative experiences of Disraeli's career: "[T]he impressions that it made on him were life-lasting. They conditioned his attitude toward some of the most important political problems which faced him in his later years—especially the Eastern Question; they also coloured many of his novels."<a href="#cite_note-62">[53]</a> Disraeli wrote two novels in the aftermath of the tour. <a href="/wiki/Contarini_Fleming" title="Contarini Fleming">Contarini Fleming</a> (1832) was avowedly a self-portrait. It is subtitled "a psychological autobiography" and depicts the conflicting elements of its hero's character: the duality of northern and Mediterranean ancestry, the dreaming artist and the bold man of action.

The choice of a <a href="/wiki/Tories_(British_political_party)" title="Tories (British political party)">Tory</a> publication was regarded as strange by Disraeli's friends and relatives, who thought him more of a <a href="/wiki/Radicals_(UK)" title="Radicals (UK)">Radical</a>. Indeed, he had objected to Murray about Croker's inserting "high Tory" sentiment: Disraeli remarked, "it is quite impossible that anything adverse to the general measure of Reform can issue from my pen."<a href="#cite_note-66">[n 10]</a> Moreover, at the time Gallomania was published, Disraeli was electioneering in <a href="/wiki/Wycombe_(UK_Parliament_constituency)" title="Wycombe (UK Parliament constituency)">High Wycombe</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Radicals_(UK)" title="Radicals (UK)">Radical</a> interest.<a href="#cite_note-67">[57]</a> Disraeli's politics at the time were influenced both by his rebellious streak and his desire to make his mark.<a href="#cite_note-b87-68">[58]</a> At that time, British politics were dominated by the aristocracy, with a few powerful commoners. The Whigs derived from the coalition of Lords who had forced through the <a href="/wiki/Bill_of_Rights_1689" title="Bill of Rights 1689">Bill of Rights 1689</a> and in some cases were their descendants. The Tories tended to support King and Church and sought to thwart political change. A small number of Radicals, generally from northern constituencies, were the strongest advocates of continuing reform.<a href="#cite_note-party-69">[59]</a> In the early 1830s the Tories and the interests they represented appeared to be a lost cause. The other great party, the Whigs, were anathema to Disraeli: "Toryism is worn out & I cannot condescend to be a Whig."<a href="#cite_note-b87-68">[58]</a> There was a by-election and a general election in 1832; Disraeli unsuccessfully stood as a Radical at High Wycombe in each.<a href="#cite_note-70">[60]</a> Disraeli's political views embraced certain Radical policies, particularly electoral reform, and also some Tory ones, including <a href="/wiki/Protectionism" title="Protectionism">protectionism</a>. He began to move in Tory circles. In 1834 he was introduced to the former <a href="/wiki/Lord_Chancellor" title="Lord Chancellor">Lord Chancellor</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_Copley,_1st_Baron_Lyndhurst" title="John Copley, 1st Baron Lyndhurst">Lord Lyndhurst</a>, by Henrietta Sykes, wife of <a href="/wiki/Sir_Francis_William_Sykes,_3rd_Baronet" class="mw-redirect" title="Sir Francis William Sykes, 3rd Baronet">Sir Francis Sykes</a>. She was having an affair with Lyndhurst and began another with Disraeli.<a href="#cite_note-73">[n 11]</a> Disraeli and Lyndhurst took an immediate liking to each other. Lyndhurst was an indiscreet gossip with a fondness for intrigue; this appealed greatly to Disraeli, who became his secretary and go-between. In 1835 Disraeli stood for the last time as a Radical, again unsuccessfully contesting High Wycombe. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:O%27connell-Labouchere.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Two men of Victorian appearance" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/eb/O%27connell-Labouchere.jpg" decoding="async" width="125" height="250" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="125" data-file-height="250" /></a><figcaption>Opponents of Disraeli: <a href="/wiki/Daniel_O%27Connell" title="Daniel O'Connell">O'Connell</a> and <a href="/wiki/Henry_Labouchere,_1st_Baron_Taunton" title="Henry Labouchere, 1st Baron Taunton">Labouchere</a></figcaption></figure> In April 1835, Disraeli fought a <a href="/wiki/By-election" title="By-election">by-election</a> at <a href="/wiki/Taunton_(UK_Parliament_constituency)" title="Taunton (UK Parliament constituency)">Taunton</a> as a Tory candidate.<a href="#cite_note-74">[63]</a> The Irish MP <a href="/wiki/Daniel_O%27Connell" title="Daniel O'Connell">Daniel O'Connell</a>, misled by inaccurate press reports, thought Disraeli had slandered him while electioneering at Taunton; he launched an outspoken attack, referring to Disraeli as: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">a reptile ... just fit now, after being twice discarded by the people, to become a Conservative.

His Vindication of the English Constitution, was published in December 1835. It was couched in the form of an open letter to Lyndhurst, and in Bradford's view encapsulates a political philosophy that Disraeli adhered to for the rest of his life: the value of benevolent aristocratic government, a loathing of political dogma, and the modernisation of Tory policies.<a href="#cite_note-81">[70]</a> The following year he wrote a series of satires on politicians of the day, which he published in The Times under the pen-name "Runnymede". His targets included the Whigs, collectively and individually, Irish nationalists, and political corruption. One essay ended: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">The English nation, therefore, rallies for rescue from the degrading plots of a profligate oligarchy, a barbarizing sectarianism, and a boroughmongering Papacy, round their hereditary leaders—the Peers.

Less reticent were Palmerston, Gladstone, and Russell, whose statements in support of the South contributed to years of hard feelings in the United States.<a href="#cite_note-165">[147]</a> In 1862, Disraeli met Prussian Count <a href="/wiki/Otto_von_Bismarck" title="Otto von Bismarck">Otto von Bismarck</a> and said of him, "be careful about that man, he means what he says".<a href="#cite_note-166">[148]</a> The party truce ended in 1864, with Tories outraged over Palmerston's handling of the territorial dispute between the <a href="/wiki/German_Confederation" title="German Confederation">German Confederation</a> and Denmark known as the <a href="/wiki/Schleswig-Holstein_Question" class="mw-redirect" title="Schleswig-Holstein Question">Schleswig-Holstein Question</a>. Disraeli had little help from Derby, who was ill, but he united the party enough on a no-confidence vote to limit the government to a majority of 18—Tory defections and absentees kept Palmerston in office.<a href="#cite_note-167">[149]</a> Despite rumours about Palmerston's health as he turned 80, he remained personally popular, and the Liberals increased their margin in the <a href="/wiki/1865_United_Kingdom_general_election" title="1865 United Kingdom general election">July 1865 general election</a>. In the wake of the poor election results, Derby predicted to Disraeli that neither of them would ever hold office again.<a href="#cite_note-168">[150]</a> Political plans were thrown into disarray by Palmerston's death on 18 October 1865. Russell became prime minister again, with Gladstone clearly the Liberal Party's leader-in-waiting, and as Leader of the House Disraeli's direct opponent. One of Russell's early priorities was a Reform Bill, but the proposed legislation that Gladstone announced on 12 March 1866 divided his party. The Conservatives and the <a href="/wiki/Adullamites" title="Adullamites">dissident Liberals</a> repeatedly attacked Gladstone's bill, and in June finally defeated the government; Russell resigned on 26 June. The dissidents were unwilling to serve under Disraeli in the House of Commons, and Derby formed a third Conservative minority government, with Disraeli again as Chancellor.<a href="#cite_note-169">[151]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Tory_Democrat:_the_1867_Reform_Act">Tory Democrat: the 1867 Reform Act</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Tory Democrat: the 1867 Reform Act">edit</a>]</div> It was Disraeli's belief that if given the vote British people would use it instinctively to put their natural and traditional rulers, the gentlemen of the Conservative Party, into power. Responding to renewed agitation for popular suffrage, Disraeli persuaded a majority of the cabinet to agree to a Reform bill. With what Derby cautioned was "a leap in the dark", Disraeli had outflanked the Liberals who, as the supposed champions of Reform, dared not oppose him. In the absence of a credible party rival and for fear of having an election called on the issue, Conservatives felt obliged to support Disraeli despite their misgivings.<a href="#cite_note-170">[152]</a> There were Tory dissenters, most notably <a href="/wiki/Robert_Gascoyne-Cecil,_3rd_Marquess_of_Salisbury" title="Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 3rd Marquess of Salisbury">Lord Cranborne</a> (as Robert Cecil was by then known) who resigned from the government and spoke against the bill, accusing Disraeli of "a political betrayal which has no parallel in our Parliamentary annals".<a href="#cite_note-171">[153]</a> Even as Disraeli accepted Liberal amendments (although pointedly refusing those moved by Gladstone)<a href="#cite_note-172">[154]</a> that further lowered the property qualification, Cranborne was unable to lead an effective rebellion. Disraeli gained wide acclaim and became a hero to his party for the "marvellous parliamentary skill" with which he secured the passage of Reform in the Commons.<a href="#cite_note-:1-173">[155]</a> From the Liberal benches too there was admiration.

Derby knew that his "attacks of illness would, at no distant period, incapacitate me from the discharge of my public duties"; doctors had warned him that his health required his resignation.<a href="#cite_note-177">[159]</a> In late February, with Parliament in session and Derby absent, he wrote to Disraeli asking for confirmation that "you will not shrink from the additional heavy responsibility".<a href="#cite_note-a188-178">[160]</a> Reassured, he wrote to the Queen, resigning and recommending Disraeli as "only he could command the cordial support, en masse, of his present colleagues".<a href="#cite_note-a188-178">[160]</a> Disraeli went to <a href="/wiki/Osborne_House" title="Osborne House">Osborne House</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Isle_of_Wight" title="Isle of Wight">Isle of Wight</a>, where the Queen asked him to form a government.

Disraeli's term as prime minister, which began in February 1868, would therefore be short unless the Conservatives won the general election. He made only two major changes in the cabinet: he replaced <a href="/wiki/Frederic_Thesiger,_1st_Baron_Chelmsford" title="Frederic Thesiger, 1st Baron Chelmsford">Lord Chelmsford</a> as <a href="/wiki/Lord_Chancellor" title="Lord Chancellor">Lord Chancellor</a> with <a href="/wiki/Hugh_Cairns,_1st_Earl_Cairns" title="Hugh Cairns, 1st Earl Cairns">Lord Cairns</a> and brought in <a href="/wiki/George_Ward_Hunt" title="George Ward Hunt">George Ward Hunt</a> as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Derby had intended to replace Chelmsford once a vacancy in a suitable sinecure developed. Disraeli was unwilling to wait, and Cairns, in his view, was a far stronger minister.<a href="#cite_note-180">[162]</a> Disraeli's first premiership was dominated by the heated debate over the <a href="/wiki/Church_of_Ireland" title="Church of Ireland">Church of Ireland</a>. Although Ireland was largely Roman Catholic, the Church of England represented most landowners. It remained the <a href="/wiki/Established_church" class="mw-redirect" title="Established church">established church</a> and was funded by direct taxation, which was greatly resented by the Catholics and Presbyterians. An initial attempt by Disraeli to negotiate with <a href="/wiki/Henry_Edward_Manning" title="Henry Edward Manning">Archbishop Manning</a> the establishment of a Catholic university in Dublin foundered in March when Gladstone moved resolutions to disestablish the Irish Church altogether. The proposal united the <a href="/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)" title="Liberal Party (UK)">Liberals</a> under Gladstone's leadership, while causing divisions among the Conservatives.<a href="#cite_note-181">[163]</a> The Conservatives remained in office because the new electoral register was not yet ready; neither party wished a poll under the old roll. Gladstone began using the Liberal majority in the Commons to push through resolutions and legislation. Disraeli's government survived until the <a href="/wiki/1868_United_Kingdom_general_election" title="1868 United Kingdom general election">December general election</a>, at which the Liberals were returned to power with a majority.<a href="#cite_note-182">[164]</a> In its short life, the first Disraeli government passed noncontroversial laws. It ended public executions, and the <a href="/wiki/Corrupt_Practices_Act_1868" class="mw-redirect" title="Corrupt Practices Act 1868">Corrupt Practices Act</a> did much to end electoral bribery. It authorised an early version of <a href="/wiki/Nationalisation" class="mw-redirect" title="Nationalisation">nationalisation</a>, having the Post Office buy up the telegraph companies.

He used this leisure time to write a new novel, <a href="/wiki/Lothair_(novel)" title="Lothair (novel)">Lothair</a> (1870). A work of fiction by a former prime minister was a novelty for Britain, and the book became a bestseller.<a href="#cite_note-186">[168]</a> By 1872 there was dissent in the Conservative ranks over the failure to challenge Gladstone. This was quieted as Disraeli took steps to assert his leadership, and as divisions among the Liberals became clear. Public support for Disraeli was shown by cheering at a thanksgiving service in 1872 on the recovery of <a href="/wiki/Edward_VII" title="Edward VII">the Prince of Wales</a> from illness, while Gladstone was met with silence. Disraeli had supported the efforts of party manager <a href="/wiki/John_Eldon_Gorst" title="John Eldon Gorst">John Eldon Gorst</a> to put the administration of the Conservative Party on a modern basis. On Gorst's advice, Disraeli gave a speech to a mass meeting in Manchester that year. To roaring approval, he compared the Liberal front bench to "a range of exhausted volcanoes... But the situation is still dangerous. There are occasional earthquakes and ever and again the dark rumbling of the sea."<a href="#cite_note-187">[169]</a> Gladstone, Disraeli stated, dominated the scene and "alternated between a menace and a sigh".<a href="#cite_note-188">[170]</a> At his first departure from <a href="/wiki/10_Downing_Street" title="10 Downing Street">10 Downing Street</a> in 1868, Disraeli had Victoria make his wife <a href="/wiki/Mary_Anne_Disraeli" title="Mary Anne Disraeli">Mary Anne</a> Viscountess Beaconsfield in her own right in lieu of a peerage for himself.<a href="#cite_note-Hibbertpp-189">[171]</a> Through 1872 the eighty-year-old peeress had stomach cancer. She died on 15 December. Urged by a clergyman to turn her thoughts to Jesus Christ in her final days, she said she could not: "You know Dizzy is my J.C."<a href="#cite_note-190">[172]</a> In 1873, Gladstone brought forward legislation to establish a Catholic university in Dublin. This divided the Liberals, and on 12 March an alliance of Conservatives and Irish Catholics defeated the government by three votes. Gladstone resigned, and the Queen sent for Disraeli, who refused to take office. Without a general election, a Conservative government would be another minority; Disraeli wanted the power a majority would bring and felt he could gain it later by leaving the Liberals in office now. Gladstone's government struggled on, beset by scandal and unimproved by a reshuffle. As part of that change, Gladstone took on the office of Chancellor,<a href="#cite_note-192">[n 19]</a> leading to questions as to whether he had to stand for re-election on taking on a second ministry—until the 1920s, MPs becoming ministers <a href="/wiki/Ministerial_by-election" title="Ministerial by-election">had to seek re-election</a>.<a href="#cite_note-193">[174]</a> In January 1874, Gladstone called <a href="/wiki/1874_United_Kingdom_general_election" title="1874 United Kingdom general election">a general election</a>, convinced that if he waited longer, he would do worse at the polls. Balloting was spread over two weeks, beginning on 1 February.<a href="#cite_note-194">[175]</a> As the constituencies voted, it became clear that the result would be a Conservative majority, the first since 1841.

Continued ill health during his second premiership caused him to contemplate resignation, but his lieutenant, Derby, was unwilling, feeling that he could not manage the Queen. For Disraeli, the Lords, where the debate was less intense, was the alternative to resignation. Five days before the end of the 1876 session of Parliament, on 11 August, Disraeli was seen to linger and look around the chamber before departing.

Disraeli did not agree, and while he did not seek to reverse the order, his actions often frustrated its intent. For example, Disraeli made political appointments to positions previously given to career civil servants. He was backed by his party, hungry for office and its emoluments after almost thirty years with only brief spells in government. Disraeli gave positions to hard-up Conservative leaders, even—to Gladstone's outrage—creating one office at £2,000 per year.<a href="#cite_note-206">[187]</a> Nevertheless, Disraeli made fewer peers (only 22, including one of Victoria's sons) than had Gladstone (37 during his just over five years in office).<a href="#cite_note-207">[188]</a> As he had in government posts, Disraeli rewarded old friends with clerical positions, making <a href="/wiki/Sydney_Turner" title="Sydney Turner">Sydney Turner</a>, son of a good friend of Isaac D'Israeli, <a href="/wiki/Dean_of_Ripon" title="Dean of Ripon">Dean of Ripon</a>.<a href="#cite_note-208">[189]</a> He favoured <a href="/wiki/Low_church" title="Low church">Low church</a> clergymen in promotion, disliking other movements in Anglicanism for political reasons.

Nevertheless, his biographer Robert Blake doubts that his subject had specific ideas about foreign policy when he took office in 1874. He had rarely travelled abroad; since his youthful tour of the Middle East in 1830–1831, he had left Britain only for his honeymoon and three visits to Paris, the last of which was in 1856. As he had criticised Gladstone for a do-nothing foreign policy, he most probably contemplated what actions would reassert Britain's place in Europe. His brief first premiership, and the first year of his second, gave him little opportunity to make his mark in foreign affairs.<a href="#cite_note-Blake_(1967),_pp._570–571-210">[191]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Suez">Suez</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Suez">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Disraeli.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fc/Disraeli.jpg/220px-Disraeli.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="326" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fc/Disraeli.jpg/330px-Disraeli.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fc/Disraeli.jpg 2x" data-file-width="337" data-file-height="500" /></a><figcaption>Portrait of Disraeli published in 1873</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Refer to caption" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg/170px-Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="222" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg/255px-Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f2/Victoria_Disraeli_cartoon.jpg 2x" data-file-width="301" data-file-height="393" /></a><figcaption>New Crowns for Old depicts Disraeli as Abanazar from the pantomime <a href="/wiki/Aladdin" title="Aladdin">Aladdin</a>, offering Victoria an imperial crown in exchange for a royal one.

The French might also threaten those lines.<a href="#cite_note-213">[194]</a> Britain had had the opportunity to purchase shares in the canal but had declined to do so.<a href="#cite_note-214">[195]</a> Disraeli sent the Liberal MP <a href="/wiki/Nathan_Rothschild,_1st_Baron_Rothschild" title="Nathan Rothschild, 1st Baron Rothschild">Nathan Rothschild</a> to Paris to enquire about buying de Lesseps's shares.<a href="#cite_note-w541-212">[193]</a> On 14 November 1875, the editor of the <a href="/wiki/Pall_Mall_Gazette" class="mw-redirect" title="Pall Mall Gazette">Pall Mall Gazette</a>, <a href="/wiki/Frederick_Greenwood" title="Frederick Greenwood">Frederick Greenwood</a>, learnt from London banker Henry Oppenheim that the Khedive was seeking to sell his shares in the <a href="/wiki/Suez_Canal_Company" class="mw-redirect" title="Suez Canal Company">Suez Canal Company</a> to a French firm. Greenwood quickly told Lord Derby, the Foreign Secretary, who notified Disraeli. The Prime Minister moved immediately to secure the shares. On 23 November, the Khedive offered to sell the shares for 100,000,000 <a href="/wiki/French_franc" title="French franc">francs</a>.<a href="#cite_note-baer-215">[196]</a> Rather than seek the aid of the <a href="/wiki/Bank_of_England" title="Bank of England">Bank of England</a>, Disraeli borrowed funds from Lionel de Rothschild, who took a commission on the deal.

Under Gladstone, Britain took control of Egypt in 1882. A later Foreign Secretary, <a href="/wiki/George_Curzon,_1st_Marquess_Curzon_of_Kedleston" title="George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston">Lord Curzon</a>, described the canal in 1909 as "the determining influence of every considerable movement of British power to the east and south of the Mediterranean".<a href="#cite_note-a263-218">[199]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Royal_Titles_Act">Royal Titles Act</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: Royal Titles Act">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Royal_Titles_Act_1876" title="Royal Titles Act 1876">Royal Titles Act 1876</a></div> Although initially curious about Disraeli when he entered Parliament in 1837, Victoria came to detest him over his treatment of Peel. Over time, her dislike softened, especially as Disraeli took pains to cultivate her. He told <a href="/wiki/Matthew_Arnold" title="Matthew Arnold">Matthew Arnold</a>, "Everybody likes flattery; and, when you come to royalty, you should lay it on with a trowel".<a href="#cite_note-219">[200]</a> Disraeli's biographer, <a href="/wiki/Adam_Kirsch" title="Adam Kirsch">Adam Kirsch</a>, suggests that Disraeli's obsequious treatment of his queen was part flattery, part belief that this was how a queen should be addressed by a loyal subject, and part awe that a middle-class man of Jewish birth should be the companion of a monarch.<a href="#cite_note-220">[201]</a> By the time of his second premiership, Disraeli had built a strong relationship with Victoria, probably closer to her than any of her prime ministers except her first, <a href="/wiki/Lord_Melbourne" class="mw-redirect" title="Lord Melbourne">Lord Melbourne</a>. When Disraeli returned as prime minister in 1874 and went to <a href="/wiki/Kiss_hands" class="mw-redirect" title="Kiss hands">kiss hands</a>, he did so literally, on one knee; according to Richard Aldous in his book on the rivalry between Disraeli and Gladstone, "Victoria and Disraeli would exploit their closeness for mutual advantage."<a href="#cite_note-221">[202]</a> Victoria had long wished to have an imperial title, reflecting Britain's expanding domain.<a href="#cite_note-222">[203]</a> She was irked when Tsar <a href="/wiki/Alexander_II_of_Russia" title="Alexander II of Russia">Alexander II</a> held a higher rank than her as an emperor, and was appalled that her daughter, the Prussian Crown Princess, would outrank her when <a href="/wiki/Frederick_III,_German_Emperor" title="Frederick III, German Emperor">her husband</a> came to the throne.<a href="#cite_note-223">[204]</a> She also saw an imperial title as proclaiming Britain's increased stature in the world.<a href="#cite_note-224">[205]</a> The title "<a href="/wiki/Empress_of_India" class="mw-redirect" title="Empress of India">Empress of India</a>" had been used informally for some time and she wished to have that title formally bestowed on her. The Queen prevailed upon Disraeli to introduce a Royal Titles Bill, and also told of her intent to <a href="/wiki/State_Opening_of_Parliament" title="State Opening of Parliament">open Parliament</a> in person, which during this time she did only when she wanted something from legislators. Disraeli was cautious in response, as careful soundings of MPs brought a negative reaction, and he declined to place such a proposal in the <a href="/wiki/Queen%27s_Speech" class="mw-redirect" title="Queen's Speech">Queen's Speech</a>.<a href="#cite_note-225">[206]</a> Once the desired bill was finally prepared, Disraeli's handling of it was not adept. He neglected to notify either the Prince of Wales or the Opposition and was met by irritation from the prince and a full-scale attack from the Liberals. An old enemy of Disraeli, former Liberal Chancellor <a href="/wiki/Robert_Lowe" title="Robert Lowe">Robert Lowe</a>, alleged during the debate in the Commons that two previous prime ministers had refused to introduce such legislation for the Queen. Gladstone immediately stated that he was not one of them, and the Queen gave Disraeli leave to quote her saying she had never approached a prime minister with such a proposal. According to Blake, Disraeli "in a brilliant oration of withering invective proceeded to destroy Lowe", who apologised and never held office again.<a href="#cite_note-226">[207]</a> Disraeli said of Lowe that he was the only person in London with whom he would not shake hands: "he is in the mud and there I leave him."<a href="#cite_note-227">[208]</a> Fearful of losing, Disraeli was reluctant to bring the bill to a vote in the Commons, but when he did it passed with a majority of 75.

The Turks suppressed the Bulgarian uprising harshly, and when reports of these actions escaped, Disraeli and Derby stated in Parliament that they did not believe them. Disraeli called them "coffee-house babble" and dismissed allegations of torture by the Ottomans since "Oriental people usually terminate their connections with culprits in a more expeditious fashion".<a href="#cite_note-230">[211]</a> Gladstone, who had left the Liberal leadership and retired from public life, was appalled by reports of <a href="/wiki/Batak_massacre" title="Batak massacre">atrocities in Bulgaria</a>, and in August 1876, penned a hastily written pamphlet arguing that the Turks should be deprived of Bulgaria because of what they had done there. He sent a copy to Disraeli, who called it "vindictive and ill-written ... of all the Bulgarian horrors perhaps the greatest".<a href="#cite_note-231">[212]</a> Gladstone's pamphlet became an immense best-seller and rallied the Liberals to urge that the Ottoman Empire should no longer be a British ally.

He spoke only once there in the 1877 session on the Eastern Question, stating on 20 February that there was a need for stability in the Balkans, and that forcing Turkey into territorial concessions would not secure it. The Prime Minister wanted a deal with the Ottomans whereby Britain would temporarily occupy strategic areas to deter the Russians from war, to be returned on the signing of a peace treaty, but found little support in his cabinet, which favoured partition of the Ottoman Empire. As Disraeli, by then in poor health, continued to battle within the cabinet, Russia invaded Turkey on 21 April, beginning the <a href="/wiki/Russo-Turkish_War_(1877%E2%80%9378)" class="mw-redirect" title="Russo-Turkish War (1877–78)">Russo-Turkish War</a>.<a href="#cite_note-237">[218]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Congress_of_Berlin">Congress of Berlin</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=28" title="Edit section: Congress of Berlin">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Congress_of_Berlin" title="Congress of Berlin">Congress of Berlin</a></div> The Russians pushed through Ottoman territory and by December 1877 had captured the strategic Bulgarian town of <a href="/wiki/Pleven" title="Pleven">Plevna</a>. The war divided the British, but the Russian success caused some to forget the atrocities and call for intervention on the Turkish side. Others hoped for further Russian successes. The fall of Plevna was a major story for weeks, and Disraeli's warnings that Russia was a threat to British interests in the eastern Mediterranean were deemed prophetic. The <a href="/wiki/Jingoism" title="Jingoism">jingoistic</a> attitude of many Britons increased Disraeli's political support, and the Queen showed her favour by visiting him at Hughenden—the first time she had visited the country home of her prime minister since <a href="/wiki/Second_Melbourne_ministry" title="Second Melbourne ministry">the Melbourne ministry</a>. At the end of January 1878, the Ottoman Sultan appealed to Britain to save Constantinople.

Other Ottoman possessions in Europe would become independent; additional territory was to be ceded directly to Russia. This was unacceptable to the British, who protested, hoping to get the Russians to agree to attend an international conference which German Chancellor Bismarck proposed to hold at Berlin. The cabinet discussed Disraeli's proposal to position Indian troops at Malta for possible transit to the Balkans<a href="#cite_note-239">[220]</a> and call out reserves. Derby resigned in protest, and Disraeli appointed Salisbury as Foreign Secretary. Amid British preparations for war, the Russians and Turks agreed to discussions at Berlin.<a href="#cite_note-240">[221]</a> In advance of the meeting, confidential negotiations took place between Britain and Russia in April and May 1878.

By one account, the British ambassador in Berlin, <a href="/wiki/Odo_Russell,_1st_Baron_Ampthill" title="Odo Russell, 1st Baron Ampthill">Lord Odo Russell</a>, hoping to spare the delegates Disraeli's awful French accent, told Disraeli that the congress was hoping to hear a speech in English by one of its masters.<a href="#cite_note-b648-243">[224]</a> Disraeli left much of the detailed work to Salisbury, concentrating his efforts on making it as difficult as possible for the broken-up big Bulgaria to reunite.<a href="#cite_note-b648-243">[224]</a> Disraeli intended that Batum be demilitarised, but the Russians obtained their preferred language, and in 1886, fortified the town.

Parliaments were then for a seven-year term, and it was the custom not to go to the country until the sixth year unless forced to by events. Only four and a half years had passed and they did not see any clouds on the horizon that might forecast Conservative defeat if they waited. This decision not to seek re-election has often been cited as a great mistake by Disraeli. Blake, however, pointed out that results in local elections had been moving against the Conservatives, and doubted if Disraeli missed any great opportunity by waiting.<a href="#cite_note-256">[234]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Afghanistan_to_Zululand">Afghanistan to Zululand</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Benjamin_Disraeli&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Afghanistan to Zululand">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main articles: <a href="/wiki/Second_Anglo-Afghan_War" title="Second Anglo-Afghan War">Second Anglo-Afghan War</a> and <a href="/wiki/Anglo-Zulu_War" title="Anglo-Zulu War">Anglo-Zulu War</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/29/Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg/220px-Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="148" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/29/Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg/330px-Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/29/Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg/440px-Battle_in_Afghanistan.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1500" data-file-height="1006" /></a><figcaption>A depiction of the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Kandahar_(1880)" title="Battle of Kandahar (1880)">Battle of Kandahar</a>, fought in 1880.

In 1878 the Russians sent a mission to Kabul; it was not rejected by the Afghans, as the British had hoped. The British proposed to send their own mission, insisting that the Russians be sent away. The Viceroy of India <a href="/wiki/Robert_Bulwer-Lytton,_1st_Earl_of_Lytton" title="Robert Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Earl of Lytton">Lord Lytton</a> concealed his plans to issue this ultimatum from Disraeli, and when the Prime Minister insisted he take no action, went ahead anyway.

The governor of Cape Colony, <a href="/wiki/Bartle_Frere" class="mw-redirect" title="Bartle Frere">Sir Bartle Frere</a>, believing that the federation could not be accomplished until the native tribes acknowledged British rule, made demands on the <a href="/wiki/Zulu_people" title="Zulu people">Zulu</a> and their king, <a href="/wiki/Cetewayo" class="mw-redirect" title="Cetewayo">Cetewayo</a>, which they were certain to reject. As Zulu troops could not marry until they had washed their spears in blood, they were eager for combat. Frere did not send word to the cabinet of what he had done until the ultimatum was about to expire. Disraeli and the cabinet reluctantly backed him, and in early January 1879 resolved to send reinforcements. Before they could arrive, on 22 January, a Zulu <a href="/wiki/Impi" title="Impi">impi</a> (army), moving with great speed and endurance, destroyed a British encampment in South Africa in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Isandlwana" title="Battle of Isandlwana">Battle of Isandlwana</a>. Over a thousand British and colonial troops were killed. Word of the defeat did not reach London until 12 February.<a href="#cite_note-259">[237]</a> Disraeli wrote the next day, "the terrible disaster has shaken me to the centre".<a href="#cite_note-260">[238]</a> He reprimanded Frere, but left him in charge, attracting fire from all sides. Disraeli sent General <a href="/wiki/Garnet_Wolseley,_1st_Viscount_Wolseley" title="Garnet Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley">Sir Garnet Wolseley</a> as High Commissioner and Commander in Chief, and Cetewayo and the Zulus were crushed at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Ulundi" title="Battle of Ulundi">Battle of Ulundi</a> on 4 July 1879.<a href="#cite_note-261">[239]</a> On 8 September 1879 <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Louis_Napoleon_Cavagnari" title="Pierre Louis Napoleon Cavagnari">Sir Louis Cavagnari</a>, in charge of the mission in Kabul, was killed with his entire staff by rebelling <a href="/wiki/Military_history_of_Afghanistan" title="Military history of Afghanistan">Afghan soldiers</a>.

The small Scottish electorate was dominated by two noblemen, the Conservative <a href="/wiki/Walter_Montagu_Douglas_Scott,_5th_Duke_of_Buccleuch" title="Walter Montagu Douglas Scott, 5th Duke of Buccleuch">Duke of Buccleuch</a> and the Liberal <a href="/wiki/Archibald_Primrose,_5th_Earl_of_Rosebery" title="Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery">Earl of Rosebery</a>. The Earl, a friend of both Disraeli and Gladstone who would succeed the latter after his final term as prime minister, had journeyed to the United States to view politics there, and was convinced that <a href="/wiki/American_election_campaigns_in_the_19th_century" title="American election campaigns in the 19th century">aspects of American electioneering techniques</a> could be translated to Britain. On his advice, Gladstone accepted the offer in January 1879, and later that year began his <a href="/wiki/Midlothian_campaign" title="Midlothian campaign">Midlothian campaign</a>, speaking not only in Edinburgh, but across Britain, attacking Disraeli, to huge crowds.<a href="#cite_note-263">[241]</a> Conservative chances of re-election were damaged by the poor weather, and consequent effects on agriculture. Four consecutive wet summers through 1879 had led to poor harvests. In the past, the farmer had the consolation of higher prices at such times, but with bumper crops cheaply transported from the United States, grain prices remained low. Other European nations, faced with similar circumstances, opted for protection, and Disraeli was urged to reinstitute the Corn Laws. He declined, stating that he regarded the matter as settled. Protection would have been highly unpopular among the newly enfranchised urban working classes, as it would raise their cost of living. Amid an economic slump generally, the Conservatives lost support among farmers.<a href="#cite_note-264">[242]</a> Disraeli's health continued to fail through 1879. Owing to his infirmities, Disraeli was 45 minutes late for the <a href="/wiki/Lord_Mayor_of_London#Role" title="Lord Mayor of London">Lord Mayor's Dinner</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Guildhall,_London" title="Guildhall, London">Guildhall</a> in November, at which it is customary that the Prime Minister speaks. Though many commented on how healthy he looked, it took him great effort to appear so, and when he told the audience he expected to speak to the dinner again the following year, attendees chuckled. Gladstone was then in the midst of his campaign. Despite his public confidence, Disraeli recognised that the Conservatives would probably lose the next election and was already contemplating his <a href="/wiki/Prime_Minister%27s_Resignation_Honours" title="Prime Minister's Resignation Honours">Resignation Honours</a>.<a href="#cite_note-265">[243]</a> Despite this pessimism, Conservatives hopes were buoyed in early 1880 with successes in by-elections the Liberals had expected to win, concluding with victory in <a href="/wiki/Southwark_(UK_Parliament_constituency)" title="Southwark (UK Parliament constituency)">Southwark</a>, normally a Liberal stronghold. The cabinet had resolved to wait before dissolving Parliament; in early March they reconsidered, agreeing to go to the country as soon as possible. Parliament was dissolved on 24 March; the first borough constituencies began voting a week later.<a href="#cite_note-266">[244]</a> Disraeli took no public part in the electioneering, it being deemed improper for peers to make speeches to influence Commons elections. This meant that the chief Conservatives—Disraeli, Salisbury, and India Secretary <a href="/wiki/Gathorne_Gathorne-Hardy,_1st_Earl_of_Cranbrook" title="Gathorne Gathorne-Hardy, 1st Earl of Cranbrook">Lord Cranbrook</a>—would not be heard from. The election was thought likely to be close.<a href="#cite_note-267">[245]</a> Once returns began to be announced, it became clear that the Conservatives were decisively beaten.

The memory of Disraeli was used by the Conservatives to appeal to the working classes, with whom he was said to have had a rapport.<a href="#cite_note-311">[286]</a> This aspect of his policies has been re-evaluated by historians in the 20th and 21st centuries. In 1972 B. H. Abbott stressed that it was not Disraeli but <a href="/wiki/Lord_Randolph_Churchill" title="Lord Randolph Churchill">Lord Randolph Churchill</a> who invented the term "Tory democracy", though it was Disraeli who made it an essential part of Conservative policy and philosophy.<a href="#cite_note-312">[287]</a> In 2007 Parry wrote, "The tory democrat myth did not survive detailed scrutiny by professional historical writing of the 1960s [which] demonstrated that Disraeli had very little interest in a programme of social legislation and was very flexible in handling parliamentary reform in 1867."<a href="#cite_note-313">[288]</a> Despite this, Parry sees Disraeli, rather than Peel, as the founder of the modern Conservative party.<a href="#cite_note-314">[289]</a> The Conservative politician and writer <a href="/wiki/Douglas_Hurd" title="Douglas Hurd">Douglas Hurd</a> wrote in 2013, "[Disraeli] was not a one-nation Conservative—and this was not simply because he never used the phrase. He rejected the concept in its entirety."<a href="#cite_note-315">[290]</a> Disraeli's enthusiastic propagation of the <a href="/wiki/British_Empire" title="British Empire">British Empire</a> has also been seen as appealing to working-class voters. Before his leadership of the Conservative Party, imperialism was the province of the Liberals, most notably Palmerston. Disraeli made the Conservatives the party that most loudly supported both the Empire and military action to assert its primacy. This came about in part because Disraeli's own views stemmed that way, in part because he saw advantage for the Conservatives, and partially in reaction against Gladstone, who disliked the expense of empire. Blake argued that Disraeli's imperialism "decisively orientated the Conservative party for many years to come, and the tradition which he started was probably a bigger electoral asset in winning working-class support during the last quarter of the century than anything else".<a href="#cite_note-316">[291]</a> Some historians have commented on a romantic impulse behind Disraeli's approach to Empire and foreign affairs: Abbott writes, "To the mystical Tory concepts of Throne, Church, Aristocracy and People, Disraeli added Empire."<a href="#cite_note-317">[292]</a> Others have identified a strongly pragmatic aspect to his policies. Gladstone's biographer <a href="/wiki/Philip_Magnus-Allcroft" class="mw-redirect" title="Philip Magnus-Allcroft">Philip Magnus</a> contrasted Disraeli's grasp of foreign affairs with that of Gladstone, who "never understood that high moral principles, in their application to foreign policy, are more often destructive of political stability than motives of national self-interest."<a href="#cite_note-318">[293]</a> In Parry's view, Disraeli's foreign policy "can be seen as a gigantic castle in the air (as it was by Gladstone), or as an overdue attempt to force the British commercial classes to awaken to the realities of European politics."<a href="#cite_note-319">[294]</a> During his lifetime Disraeli's opponents, and sometimes even his friends and allies, questioned whether he sincerely held the views he propounded, or whether they were adopted by him as politically essential and lacked conviction. Lord John Manners, in 1843 at the time of Young England, wrote, "could I only satisfy myself that D'Israeli believed all that he said, I should be more happy: his historical views are quite mine, but does he believe them?"<a href="#cite_note-smith-320">[295]</a> <a href="/wiki/Paul_Smith_(historian)" title="Paul Smith (historian)">Paul Smith</a>, in his journal article on Disraeli's politics, argues that Disraeli's ideas were coherently argued over a political career of nearly half a century, and "it is impossible to sweep them aside as a mere bag of burglar's tools for effecting felonious entry to the British political pantheon."<a href="#cite_note-smith-320">[295]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1257001546"><table class="infobox" style="width: 210px; clear: right; float:right;margin:0 0 1.5em 1.5em"><tbody><tr><th colspan="2" class="infobox-above" style="font-size:115%">External videos</th></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-full-data" style="text-align: left"><img alt="video icon" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg/16px-Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg.png" decoding="async" width="16" height="16" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg/24px-Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg/32px-Nuvola_apps_kaboodle.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="128" data-file-height="128" /> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?54339-1/disraeli-biography">Booknotes interview with Stanley Weintraub on Disraeli: A Biography, February 6, 1994</a>, <a href="/wiki/C-SPAN" title="C-SPAN">C-SPAN</a><a href="#cite_note-cspan-321">[296]</a></td></tr></tbody></table> <a href="/wiki/Stanley_Weintraub" title="Stanley Weintraub">Stanley Weintraub</a>, in his biography of Disraeli, points out that his subject did much to advance Britain towards the 20th century, carrying one of the two great Reform Acts of the 19th despite the opposition of his Liberal rival, Gladstone. <blockquote>He helped preserve constitutional monarchy by drawing the Queen out of mourning into a new symbolic national role and created the climate for what became '<a href="/wiki/One-nation_conservatism" title="One-nation conservatism">Tory democracy</a>'.

The imperialism of his later years was equally superficial: an interpretation of politics without economics. Disraeli liked to think of himself in terms of pure intellect, but his politics were more personal than intellectual in character. He had far-reaching schemes but little administrative ability, and there was some foundation for Napoleon Ill's judgement that he was 'like all literary men, from Chateaubriand to Guizot, ignorant of the world'.... In spite of these faults...Disraeli's courage, quickness of wit, capacity for affection, and freedom from sordid motives earned him his position. His ambition was of the nobler sort .
