Aneurin Bevan at the 1952 Labour Party Conference in the Winter Gardens, Blackpool
Aneurin Bevan at the 1952 Labour Party Conference in the Winter Gardens, Blackpool.
Welsh miners son Nye Bevan (1897-1960) worked in the pits from age 13, was a prominent trade unionist by 19 and led the Welsh miners in the 1926 General Strike. MP for Ebbw Vale in 1929, he made a reputation as an orator. As Minister of Health in the post-war Labour government, he established the National Health Service, but widening gaps between his ideals and the leadership led to his resignation as Minister of Labour in 1951. " No amount of cajoling, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party......so far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin." (Speech, 4 July 1949)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Aneurin Bevan, a remarkable figure in British history, at the 1952 Labour Party Conference held in the Winter Gardens of Blackpool. Born into a family of Welsh miners, Nye Bevan's humble beginnings shaped his unwavering dedication to fighting for workers' rights and social justice. Starting work in the coal mines at just 13 years old, Bevan quickly rose through the ranks of trade unionism and became a prominent leader during the 1926 General Strike. His powerful oratory skills earned him recognition as an exceptional speaker and propelled him into politics. As Minister of Health in the post-war Labour government, Bevan achieved one of his greatest legacies by establishing the National Health Service (NHS). This groundbreaking initiative provided free healthcare for all citizens regardless of their financial status. However, tensions between Bevan's ideals and party leadership eventually led to his resignation as Minister of Labour in 1951. Known for his passionate convictions, he famously declared his deep-seated hatred for the Tory Party: "No amount of cajoling. . . can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred. . . they are lower than vermin". This photograph serves as a poignant reminder not only of Aneurin Bevan's pivotal role in shaping Britain's political landscape but also highlights his relentless pursuit to create a fairer society where everyone has access to essential healthcare services.
