Although he presided over a large majority, Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman was overshadowed by his ministers, most notably Herbert Henry Asquith at the Exchequer, Edward Grey at the Foreign Office, Richard Burdon Haldane at the War Office and David Lloyd George at the Board of Trade.

The militia was transformed into the Special Reserve by the military reforms of Haldane in the reforming post 1906 Liberal government.

He was so depressed at the tone of class warfare – although Asquith told him that party rancour had been just as bad over the First Home Rule Bill in 1886 – that he introduced the Prince of Wales to War Minister Haldane as " the last King of England ".

At this time the Liberal Party was badly split as Herbert Henry Asquith, Richard Burdon Haldane and others were supporters of the war and formed the Liberal Imperial League.

Instead of returning to India, he was reassigned to units in England, serving as an adjutant to the 2nd South Middlesex Volunteers ( amalgamated into the 7th Middlesex during the Haldane Reforms ) and helping form the 10th Middlesex, until he was accepted into the Staff College at Camberley in 1913 ( starting work there in January 1914 ).

By autumn 1915, with Asquith ’ s Coalition close to breaking up over conscription, he was blamed for the failure to bring in that measure and for the excessive influence which civilians like Churchill and Haldane had come to exert over strategy, allowing ad hoc campaigns to develop in Sinai, Mesopotamia and Salonika.

It was at Lincoln's Inn that in 1882 Asquith met Richard Haldane, whom he would appoint as Lord Chancellor in 1912.

After the Conservative government of Arthur Balfour fell in December 1905 there was some speculation that Asquith and his allies Richard Haldane and Sir Edward Grey would refuse to serve unless Campbell-Bannerman accepted a peerage, which would have left Asquith as the real leader in the House of Commons.

It presented the conclusions reached by Fisher, Haldane, and especially Wright in their highly mathematical papers in a form that was easily accessible to others.

Haldane was the first to quantify fitness, in terms of the modern evolutionary synthesis of Darwinism and Mendelian genetics starting with his 1924 paper A Mathematical Theory of Natural and Artificial Selection.

That ... Grey and Haldane did not inform the Cabinet is astonishing ; that a true-hearted apostle of peace like Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman should have known of the danger and yet concealed it from his colleagues is incredible, and I am happy to conclude ... with an assurance that in the days of his triumph the Liberal leader, having fought a good fight, kept the faith to the end and was in no way responsible for the European tragedy that came to pass six years after his death ".

The murder of two RIC men at Soloheadbeg ( 21 January 1919 ) caused French to call off tentative talks between Haldane and the recently-elected Irish Dáil ( Haldane blamed Walter Long who was opposed to the talks ).

Robert Haldane ( 28 February 1764 – 12 December 1842 ) was a Scottish churchman.

Haldane was born in London, the son of James Haldane 2nd of Airthrey House, and his wife Katherine Duncan.

His younger brother James Alexander Haldane was also a clergyman.

Haldane was afterwards present at the relief of Gibraltar in September 1782.

James Alexander Haldane ( 14 July 1768 – 8 February 1851 ) was a Scottish independent church leader.

The younger son of Captain James Haldane of Airthrey House, ( his older brother Robert Haldane was also a clergyman ) in Stirlingshire, he was born at Dundee.

Daniel Rutherford Haldane ( 27 March 1824 – 12 April 1887 ) was a prominent Scottish physician, who became president of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh.

After the Conservative government of Arthur Balfour fell in December 1905 there was some speculation that Herbert Henry Asquith and his allies Haldane and Sir Edward Grey would refuse to serve unless Campbell-Bannerman accepted a peerage, which would have left Asquith as the real leader in the House of Commons.

Lord Clarendon married Adeline Verena Ishbel Cocks, daughter of Herbert Haldane Somers Cocks, in 1905.

Many of Esher ’ s recommendations were implemented under the new Liberal governments of Henry Campbell-Bannerman and Herbert Henry Asquith by Haldane, Secretary of State for War, assisted by Esher's protege the young Major-General Douglas Haig.

Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur Herbert Tennyson Somers-Cocks, 6th Baron Somers, KCMG, DSO, MC, DL ( 20 March 1887, Freshwater, Isle of Wight – 14 July 1944, Eastnor Castle, Hereford ), son of Herbert Haldane Somers-Cocks by Blanche Margaret Standish Clogstoun.

Haldane ( 1892 – 1964 ), but in her youth her paternal uncle Richard Burdon Haldane, 1st Viscount Haldane, twice Lord Chancellor ( from 1912-1915 under Herbert Henry Asquith, and in 1924 during the first Labour government of Ramsay Macdonald ), was better known.

Once Byng was enrolled at the Staff College, he found amongst his fellow students men with whom he would be closely associated more than two decades later Henry Rawlinson, Henry Hughes Wilson, Thomas D ' Oyly Snow, and James Aylmer Lowthorpe Haldane and in 1894, while en route to visit a friend at Aldershot, travelled with a cadet at the nearby Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, Winston Churchill.

Asquith, Edward Grey, and Richard Burdon Haldane forming a clique dubbed the " Liberal Imperialists " that supported the government in the prosecution of the war.

However, the plot ( called the " Relugas Compact " after the Scottish lodge where the men met ) collapsed when Asquith agreed to serve as Chancellor of the Exchequer under Campbell-Bannerman ( Grey became Foreign Secretary and Haldane Secretary of State for War ).

Future Liberal Prime Minister, H. H. Asquith, described him as one of the three or four greatest men of the 19th century, while Lord Haldane described him as the strongest man the British House of Commons had seen in 150 years.

Campbell-Bannerman also faced problems within his own party, through the so called " Relugas Compact " between H. H. Asquith, Sir Edward Grey and Richard Haldane, who planned to force him into the House of Lords, weakening him as Prime Minister and effectively allowing Asquith to govern as Leader of the House of Commons.

Campbell-Bannerman saw off both of these issues by immediately dissolving Parliament and calling a general election, whilst offering the positions of Chancellor of the Exchequer, Foreign Secretary and Secretary of State for War to Asquith, Grey and Haldane respectively, which all three accepted.

As the war progressed, Haldane moved increasingly close to the Labour Party but he was held back by his ties to the Liberal Party and to Asquith.

During the 1900s and 1910s, many Liberal politicians took up the ideology of Liberal Imperialism, led by the Chancellor of the Exchequer ( H. H. Asquith ), the Secretary of State for War ( Richard Haldane ) and the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs ( Sir Edward Grey ).

Lord Loreburn's disagreements with Lord Haldane, Sir Edward, Asquith, and eventually Lloyd George became more prominent, and it seemed that the Imperialists would get their way and force British military action onto the Continent.

Asquith, Lloyd George, Grey, Churchill, and Haldane thought they could force the rest of the Cabinet into their eventual goals, but they were sorely mistaken.
