EDITORS COMMENTS
This postcard features a captivating image of David Lloyd George, the Welsh statesman who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1916 to 1922. Known for his significant contributions to British politics, Lloyd George is best remembered for his role in the implementation of the National Health Insurance Act of 1911. The act, popularly known as the '9 pence for 4 pence' scheme, revolutionized healthcare in the UK by providing financial assistance to workers and their families, ensuring they could access essential medical care. Under this groundbreaking reform, workers paid 4 pence, employers contributed 3 pence, and the state covered the remaining 2 pence. This postcard playfully references the 'stamp' that required 'a lot of licking' – a nod to the financial contributions necessary for the National Health Insurance Act to come into effect. The red stamp on the postcard serves as a visual reminder of the importance of collective efforts in securing the benefits of this landmark legislation. Lloyd George's tenure as Prime Minister also saw the introduction of other significant reforms, such as the National Insurance Act of 1911, which expanded social welfare provisions. This postcard is an intriguing piece of historical memorabilia, offering a glimpse into the past and the pivotal role David Lloyd George played in shaping the British healthcare system.
