This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, KG PC FRS was born Benjamin D'Israeli. Despite the fact that he converted to Anglicanism in his teen years, he remains to date Britain's only ethnically-Jewish Prime Minister. He played a key role in the creation of the modern Conservative Party after the Corn Laws schism of 1846. Despite this he was not very well liked by the other major party leaders at the time but he kept working at it and was finally welcomed in fully in the 1860s. He had a life long rivalry with William Gladstone, the later head of the Liberal party and a later Prime Minister. In order to help with this he became a close friend of Queen Victoria (he pushed through legislation that made her the Empress of India, putting her on the top tier of European royalty with Tzar Nicholas II and ensuring that she would not be outranked by her daughter when she married German Emperor Frederick III, or by the Indian nobles who still ran parts of India), which also caused her hatred for Gladstone. |
