Happy candidate at Smethwick, Conservative MP Peter Griffiths who took the seat away from Labour's Patrick Gordon Walker. Peter Griffiths pictured with his wife Jeannette. 15th October 1964". This print captures a momentous occasion in British political history during the 1960s. In this image, we see the jubilant face of Conservative MP Peter Griffiths as he celebrates his victory over Labour's Patrick Gordon Walker in the Smethwick constituency. The general election held on October 15th, 1964 marked a significant turning point for both politicians and residents of Smethwick. With an infectious smile that radiates happiness and triumph, Griffiths proudly stands alongside his supportive wife Jeannette. This photograph not only symbolizes a personal achievement for Griffiths but also represents a larger political shift within the country. The win was particularly noteworthy due to its association with race and immigration issues prevalent during that era. Griffiths' success in unseating Walker reflected changing sentiments among voters regarding these sensitive topics. His victory became emblematic of growing conservative attitudes towards immigration policies and their impact on local communities.
