Talk:UK Prime Ministers timeline

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The gray in the table for "not in parliament" is a bit too close to the conservative blue. Jooler 11:55, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Better now? Wikipete 21:46, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Ta. Of course a pale yellow or green would contrast more, but it's fine now. Jooler 23:09, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notable Achievements

Why does it say that Balfour died in office? He ceased to be PM in 1905, left the Commons in 1922, and lived to 1930.

Likewise Rosebery ceased to be PM in 1895 and lived to 1929. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.109.184.153 (talk) 23:59, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, fixed. Wikipete 12:12, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Start at Walpole

Is it possible to start the timeline at 26 August 1676, the date the first Prime Minister (Robert Walpole) was born? --Philip Stevens 19:29, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thatcher

The graph indicates that Thatcher was not in Parliament after the early 1990s - but she was made a life peer, and remained an active Tory politician in the House of Lords. Either the key should be altered from Parliament to House of Commons, or this should be changed.82.2.82.164 (talk) 20:46, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
