Attlee

Clement Attlee was Prime Minister, and meat, cheese, sugar, and petrol were still being rationed after World War Two.

Prime Minister Clement Attlee was criticised for allowing partition to be rushed at terrible cost in human life.

"Thatcher could have been absolutely foul-mouthed on Facebook, Clement Attlee looked like butter wouldn't melt, but give him an iPhone..."

He named the three-times Conservative prime minister alongside Labour's Tony Blair and Clement Attlee as leaders who had delivered "meaningful change" in an article for the Tory-supporting Telegraph.

"A century ago, Clement Attlee wrote that Labour must be a party of duty and patriotism, not abstract theory."
