Stanley Baldwin was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in 1936.
Stanley Baldwin was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland three times, first from 1923 May 23 to 1924 January 16, from 1924 November 4 to 1929 June 5 and again from 1935 June 7 to 1937 May 28 as a leader of the Conservative Party.
Due to Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald's declining stature, Macdonald was forced to resign in 1935, designating Baldwin as the preferred successor. An election was called for October of that year, but due to the public's general support for peace, Baldwin chose to campaign on support for the League of Nations, decrying 'great armaments', and instead making housing, unemployment, and economic depression the issues of the day. The Conservative Party would win another majority.
King George V died on 1936 January 20 making Edward VIII his successor. Meanwhile, rearmament was quietly increased. In late 1936, Churchill and others attacked the party for moving too slowly with rearmament, pointing out Germany's numerical superiority, Baldwin argued that it was as much could be done, given the political climate. The Labour party led by Attlee continued to oppose armament.
Meanwhile, King Edward's affair with Wallis Simpson had reached a breaking point, with Baldwin and all others refusing to support the monarchy if the two were wed. Edward abdicated the throne, with Baldwin giving the announcing speech on December 10, making Edward's brother George VI king.
After George VI was coronated, Baldwin stated his intention to step down. Baldwin was replaced as PM by Neville Chamberlain. Baldwin died in 1947, at the age of 80.
