Year Summary. A few lines starting like '1954 was the year...'
The Monarch is King George V. The British Empire is at its peak, covering a quarter of the planet and ruling over one in four people on earth. Prime Minister was David Lloyd George (Coalition) until October, then Bonar Law (Conservative). Lloyd George resigned over the Chanak Crisis (UK/Turkey tensions). A November election sees a Conservative victory, but Labour becomes the second largest party from the Liberals. The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) is formed and introduces a broadcasting licence fee of ten shillings (about £23 today).
