Description: A study of six prominent postwar politicians in the United Kingdom. Making the Weather is the story of six postwar politicians all of whom exerted an outsized influence on the political life of the United Kingdom an influence greater than that of most prime ministers. Vernon Bogdanor's cast includes three from the political Left Aneurin Nye Bevan Roy Jenkins and Tony Benn and three from the Right Enoch Powell Keith Joseph and Nigel Farage. Each study is a fascinating analysis examining how these men achieved such prominence and influence and how though very different figures in many ways they came to dominate the political landscape often for years. Each of the six made fundamental contributions to the debate about Britain's future and to the vibrancy of British democracy. From immigration to Europe from the National Health Service to devolution the issues and causes that brought these men to prominence are still relevant.
