Year Summary. A few lines starting like '1954 was the year...'
Queen Victoria is Monarch, Prime Minister is Robert Cecil, Marquess of Salisbury (Conservative). British Forces are engaged in the Second Boer War. The Daily Express newspaper is published for the first time. Winston Churchill is elected Member of Parliament for Oldham. The horse <em>Diamond Jubilee</em> wins the English Triple Crown by finishing first in the Epsom Derby, 2,000 Guineas and St Leger, ridden by Herbert Jones. 1900 is <em>not</em> a leap year, although 1896 and 1904 are; the rule is that century dates have to be divisable by 400.
