Was the Viscount Haldane a life peerage or a hereditary peerage? I thought it was a hereditary peerage that just wasn't given to anyone else, but now that I think about it, that makes no sense... cryptfiend64 23:58, May 22, 2004 (UTC)
It was a hereditary peerage - there are no life Viscounts. Presumably, Lord Haldane had no sons, so his title died with him. john k 06:56, 23 May 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Labour Cabinet Ministers with experience
Haldane was a vital member of the Cabinet as he was one of only three members who had sat in a cabinet before; the other two had sat only briefly and for junior posts.
I know the second was Arthur Henderson but who was the third? Timrollpickering 15:06, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Richard Haldane quote he probably didn't want to be reminded off.
"We do not consider that aeroplanes will be of any possible use for war purposes"
