Churchill, Winston S. (Editor and Contributor)

(Book #ID 114933)

Published by His Majesty's Stationary Office | from The Daily Telegraph Building, London, Thursday, May 6th, 1926. 1926.

Original Broadsheet newspaper, 4 pages. Each issue was a broadsheet newspaper, each of four pages, the first two issues printed on one side of the sheet only. This is an original newspaper and not a replica edition. The British Gazette was a short-lived British newspaper published by the Government during the General Strike of 1926. One of the first groups of workers called out by the Trades Union Congress when the general strike began on 3 May were the printers, and consequently most newspapers appeared only in very brief and truncated form. The Government therefore decided to replace them with an official publication which was printed on the presses of The Morning Post, a right-wing but traditionalist paper which later merged with The Daily Telegraph. Winston Churchill, then Chancellor of the Exchequer but formerly a journalist, took the initiative and guided the British Gazette's editorial line with the paper largely produced by the Organisation for the Maintenance of Supplies. The Gazette (No. 1) first appeared on the morning of 5 May, 1926. It was highly patriotic and condemnatory of the strikers, becoming a very effective means of propaganda for the government. The TUC produced its own paper, the British Worker (subtitled Official Strike News Edition) to attempt to counter it. The Gazette easily outsold its rival, with circulation rising from more than 200,000 copies for the first issue to more than 2,000,000. From issue 4, the masthead contained the invitation "Please pass on this copy or display it". The Gazette ran to only eight editions before the strike collapsed; the last edition had the headline "General Strike Off". Tanning to the edges and folded across the centre. Member of the P.B.F.A.

Although no features or articles are signed by Churchill, at least one article in each of the issues can confidently be ascribed to him. "During the evening of 2nd May, the day before the strike was due to start, several newspapers including the Daily Mail and Daily Express were either suppressed or censored by the machine-minders. Aware of the dangers of a muzzled Press, Stanley Baldwin, then prime minister, summoned Churchill to organise an emergency newspaper. As would be expected, he rose to the challenge with drive and imagination, laying down his guidelines in advance. 'The essential thing is that we should produce a really powerful readable broadsheet not merely to contain news but in order to relieve the minds of the people. I do not contemplate violent partisanship, but fair, strong encouragement to the great mass of loyal people. it should have a leading article, not violent partisan, but agreeable to the great majority of the people of our side: constitutional, the hope for peace, Parliament maintains authority in the country, injury to trade and reputation of the country'" (Woods, pp. 161). Churchill took over the Morning Post building. The unions pulled out their men, but Churchill called Lord Beaverbrook, who sent the night superintendent of the Daily Express to single-handedly set the type and produce the first issue. Though consisting of only one leaf printed on both sides, it sold 232,000 copies, and daily sales figures reached over 2 million by the final issue. "In spite of pious preliminary statements, Churchill ran The British Gazette not merely as a medium for Government announcements and propaganda, but also as an avowedly strike-breaking weapon, to such an extent that in the subsequent Parliamentary debate, he was bitterly attacked by Labour MPs. His retort is one of his best-known; 'I utterly decline to be impartial as between the Fire Brigade and the fire'" (ibid., p. 162). Member of the P.B.F.A.

Churchill, Winston S. (Editor and Contributor)

(Book #ID 114941)

Published by His Majesty's Stationary Office | from The Daily Telegraph Building, London, Saturday, May 8th, 1926. 1926.

Original Broadsheet newspaper, 4 pages. Each issue was a broadsheet newspaper, each of four pages, the first two issues printed on one side of the sheet only. This is an original newspaper and not a replica edition. The British Gazette was a short-lived British newspaper published by the Government during the General Strike of 1926. One of the first groups of workers called out by the Trades Union Congress when the general strike began on 3 May were the printers, and consequently most newspapers appeared only in very brief and truncated form. The Government therefore decided to replace them with an official publication which was printed on the presses of The Morning Post, a right-wing but traditionalist paper which later merged with The Daily Telegraph. Winston Churchill, then Chancellor of the Exchequer but formerly a journalist, took the initiative and guided the British Gazette's editorial line with the paper largely produced by the Organisation for the Maintenance of Supplies. The Gazette (No. 1) first appeared on the morning of 5 May, 1926. It was highly patriotic and condemnatory of the strikers, becoming a very effective means of propaganda for the government. The TUC produced its own paper, the British Worker (subtitled Official Strike News Edition) to attempt to counter it. The Gazette easily outsold its rival, with circulation rising from more than 200,000 copies for the first issue to more than 2,000,000. From issue 4, the masthead contained the invitation "Please pass on this copy or display it". The Gazette ran to only eight editions before the strike collapsed; the last edition had the headline "General Strike Off". Tanning to the edges and folded across the centre. Member of the P.B.F.A.
