  1. Lib reforms:Source practice

  2. Liberal Social Reforms Song Revision video

  3. Homework – for Monday. Do Q6 – 12 marker –from the practice exam I gave you last week. Use my guidesheet to how to answer a 12 marker to help you. Pls spend up to 45 mins preparing & answering this… If everyone does this properly & hands in on time I’ll sing the Lib Reforms song with Mr. Blunt next Thurs…

  4. TIME OUT!!! Britain was very rich in 1900, though its economy had fallen behind Germany & the US Lets review some sources showing how many people lived…

  5. Before the Liberals Workhouses (think Oliver Twist) set up under the Poor Law system made state help very unattractive. Prob. 90% of unemployed people never opted for “poor relief” under this system…

  6. Some charities were set up to help the poor 1844 1866 R.S.P.C.C 1884 1869

  7. A 1909 cartoon from the magazine “Punch” called “Forced Fellowship”. The writing at the bottom says: Suspicious-looking Party: “Any objection to my company, Guv’nor? I’m a-goin’ your way” – (aside) “and further”

  8. Charles Booth • In 1889 he published LIFE AND LABOUR OF THE PEOPLE OF LONDON; • showed that 35% Londoners (over 1 in 3) was living in terrible poverty; • His researchers visited every street in London twice and interviewed over 1m people! - Introduced idea of the “poverty line” = about £1 a weekfor a family with 3 children. - Only 3% of the 35% of Londoners in poverty got Poor Law help.

  9. Source B: My journey in England among the working class showed me that they are moody and unpredictable, empty-headed and stupid. It is foolish to think they can compete with the efficient workers of America. They are no use to England as she stuggles to keep her industrial leadership and protect her Empire. When England’s situation becomes critical they will become as desperate as wild animals and rise up and revolt. - from People of the Abyss [deep pit] by Jack London, a US writer in England in 1903. Source C: Germany is not as rich as us, yet German social reforms mean they are better organised for peace and also for war. We are organised for nothing! We cannot rely in existing charities and this winter is causing misery. Consequently, there is an urgent need to help he working class and make England a safer and better country for them. When the people begun to feel the benefit of our social reforms they will give solid support the Liberal Govt. - from a letter from Winston Churchill to H. H. Asquith in 1908. Asquith became Lib PM in 1908.

  10. L1 Describes the sources rather than identifies valid similarity/difference. [1-2] L2 Identifies valid similarity/difference unsupported by detail from sources. [2-3] L3 Identifies valid similarity/difference supported by detail from the sources. [3-4] e.g. They are similar: B – England struggles to keep industrial leadership and protect her empire. C – ‘We are organised for nothing’. L4 Valid explanation of similarity and/or difference of attitudes by reference to tone/language/purpose supported by detail from the sources. [5-7] e.g. similar: B – England struggles to protect her empire. C – ‘We are organised for nothing’. The problem is the American is biased against England, its working class are ‘moody, empty headed and stupid’. That bias also shown in pointing up differences: B ‘people will become desperate as wild animals and rise up in revolt’. C ‘people will give solid support to the government’. L5 = L4 plus contextual knowledge [7-8] e.g. Similar because they are making a military/economic assessment. B – England struggles to keep her leadership (foreign trade comp). C – ‘We are organised for nothing’ (Boer War). Different because of their political assessment: B ‘situation critical will rise up in revolt’ (Rowntree highlighted poverty). C ‘give solid support to the government’ (school meals, pensions, NI Act etc). L6 = L5 plus addresses “How Far” [9]
