Neville Chamberlain

The phrasing of the question is biased. 1. Despite his dithering in the first two days of September 1939, he did actually declare war on Germany on 3 September. This turned what would otherwise have been a minor, local war into something much bigger. 2. He resigned quickly in May 1940. 3. He died in November 1940. It was Chamberlain, who as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1931-37, had taken the unpopular step of raising taxes in order to finance Britain's rearmament. Even Churchill expressed gratitude for this.

Lord Mayor is a title used on Major cities and some large Australian cities such as Newcastle N.S.W. which applied for the title in 1947 and the title was bestow on the city in 1948.

Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain is most known for his policy of "appeasement" toward Adolf Hitler's Germany. It is thought that his appeasement policy was for Britain to be seen as being fair to German concerns and to keep Europe from going into war. It is also thought that Chamberlain thought war was inevitable and used the policy to gain time in order to build up Britain's military position.

Chamberlain also declared war on Germany in 1939 after Germany attacked Poland. Britain and France had previously agreed to protect Poland.
Chamberlain was also known for his efforts towards improving the lives of workers. He supported the Holiday Pay Act which gave workers one week off with pay and the Factories Act of 1937 which limited the number of hours women and children worked.

Neville Chamberlain was the Prime Minister of Britain between 28th May 1937 and 10th May 1940, he was succeeded by Sir Winston Churchill, Churchill was Prime Minster between 10th May 1940 and 26th July 1945.

It allowed Hitler to keep invading countries because he knew Britain, Italy and France would not stop him (because of the Munich Agreement).

Britain decided to declare war on Germany on September 3rd, 1939.

That is was the best course of action to keep "peace in our time."

He said that the agreement meant 'Peace for our time'.

He declared war on Germany and was the Prime minister of Great Britan

yes because they are related to me my last name is chamberlain so the answer is YES!!!!!! -------------------------------- Apparently not. Houston Stewart Chamberlain was the son of William Charles Chamberlain, who was the son of Sir Henry Chamberlain, 1st Baronet (1773-1829). Sir Henry was the illegitimate son of the M.P. Henry Fane, but I cannot find who his mother was or where he got the surname 'Chamberlain'. Neville Chamberlain was the son of the prominant politician Joseph Chamberlain, who was the son of London shoe manufacturer Joseph Chamberlain (1796-1894). The source of some claims that they were related may be the fact that Houston Stewart Chamberlain had an uncle named Field-Marshall Sir Neville Chamberlain (1820-1902), who earned a military reputation in India. Interestingly, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain was a member of the Eugenics Society, a racial theory which was supported by Houston Stewart Chamberlain and which informed the Nazi party (of which he was a member before his death in 1927).

he resigned... I think

__

He resigned in 1940 because he did not have enough support in cabinet and Parliament to continue. Support for his government both in government and among the population was so low, he really didn't have much of a choice but to resign.

They were afraid of the effects of standing up to Hitler in case of another war. Both Britain and France were horrified from WW1, and they were both still not ready to fight. So they used the policy of appeasement to give Hitler what he wanted, if it was within reason. Also, people in britain thought that the Treaty of Versailles- which is what took the Sudetenland land from Germany in the first place was too harsh, and that Germany should be treated more equally.

Preserved seems to be the wrong word. The Munich Pact was the agreement that allowed Germany to annexed the Sudetenland, owned by Czechoslovakia. It continued the Anglo-French policy of appeasement towards Hitler's Germany, ie giving them whatever they wanted in order to prevent another war. 'Preserved' would work had the uneasy peace that was continued due to the pact not ended eleven months after it was signed.

When Neville Chamberlain returned from the Munich Conference in 1938, he held up the signed agreement to the crowd that greeted him at the Heston Aerodrome and boasted that it meant "Peace for our Time." The quote has become famous for its historical irony. A year later, Britain and France were at war with Germany.

In May of 1937, Neville Chamberlain replaced Stanley Baldwin as the prime minister of the UK. Chamberlain was extremely concerned about a war in Europe and was prepared to end the risk of an armed conflict at almost all costs.

Because Churchill was a better military strategist than Chamberlain.

Neville Chamberlain was Britain's Prime Minister until 10 May 1940 when he resigned and was replaced by Winston Churchill.

Neville Chamberlain's decision to appease Hitler stemmed from a desire to avoid another devastating war, influenced by the trauma of World War I. He believed that granting concessions, such as allowing Germany to annex parts of Czechoslovakia, would maintain peace and stability in Europe. Additionally, there was a lack of military readiness in Britain at the time, which made confrontation seem unwise. Chamberlain's approach was also shaped by the prevailing sentiment of isolationism and a hope that diplomatic negotiations could resolve conflicts.

Chamberlain was seen as a 'modern', technocratic Conservative. Churchill, a dyed-in-the-wool imperalist, was widely seen as a backward-looking relic from the days of Queen Victoria ... He had made himself very unpopular in 1935 by speaking and voting against legislation to give India some modest measure of self-government. In the very unusual circumstances of the times, it so happened that Churchill with his views of the moral qualities need for national and imperial greatness was more in keeping with the needs of the time.
