The Relugas Compact : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Relugas Compact
The Relugas Compact was the name given to the political plot hatched between H. H. Asquith, Sir Edward Grey and R B Haldane to remove Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman from the leadership of the Liberal Party in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom in 1905. ==Why Relugas?== The name Relugas Compact comes from the meeting between Asquith, Grey and Haldane in September 1905. Asquith had taken a country house in Glen of Rothes in Moray. Grey had a fishing lodge at the village of Relugas about 15 miles away and the three met there to discuss the political situation. It was here they concluded their plan to kick Campbell-Bannerman upstairs to the Lords and render him at best “a dummy prime minister” while Asquith would hold the real power as Leader in the Commons〔Malcolm Pearce and Geoffrey Stewart, ''British Political History, 1867-1990: Democracy and Decline''; Routledge, 1992, p 195〕 and indulged in making the next Liberal Cabinet in their own image.〔Roy Jenkins, ''Asquith''; Collins, 1964 pp 145-146〕 As Haldane put it in his autobiography, “What we thus resolved on we used afterwards at times to speak of among ourselves as the ‘Relugas Compact’.〔Richard Burdon Haldane (Viscount Haldane),''An Autobiography''; Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc., 1929 pp 158-159〕
