Returning to Parliament In 1922 lgaln for Bow and Bromley, Lans bury became First Commissioner it Works in the Labor government 3f 1929. This was probably the happiest selection which could iave been made for him. It was not possible for him to fulfil his lesire to "pull down London and build It over again." but he er- ainly accomplished much that was appreciated in providing wid- r facilities for recreation ln Hyde Park and other open spaces wheh matters are under the direct control of the Social government. x-i.- One Of Few Survivors The general election of 1931. which followed the formation of l a National government, swept al-j nost every member of the old Labor Ministry out of Parliament in cluding Arthur Henderson, who had succeeded Ramsay MacDonald a Labor leader. Lansburv how ever, held his seat although his najority was reduced from over 11,000 to under 5,000. He became Parliamentary leader of the official Opposition. His Labor following was so scanty that it filled little more than the front bench to the left of the Speaker. Of all Labor men who had ris en to Cabinet rank Lansbury was aDouc uie least fitted by tempera-men to lead an official Parlia mentary Opposition. Never in his career in the Commons had he be trayed the slightest aptitude for subtle tactics: his methods in debate were always 0f the rough and tumble order. The Speaker and the House generally treated Lansburv with generosity, otherwise there might have been Incidents painful to all who are Jealous for the dignity of the British Parliament In his encounters with the House at large Lansbury displayed blank deficiency in a sense of humor. This was redeemed to some extent by the fact that in his wildest and most vituperative speeches he never displayed the slightest personal malice. A crowded Commons would often bawl vociferously at the grey, benevolent-looking old man with the mutton-chop whiskers. who cared nothing for the glamor but continued to hurl investlve to wards the Ministerial Bench. At ither times, when the House was less crowded, Lansbury's bitterest opponents would listen to him with a eertaln silent admiration. Lansbury was a curious mass of contradiction. The Commons of Westminster have ever been generous to one who is palpablv sln- ere and courageous, and Lans bury, with all his precipitate waywardness, enjoyed a larse measure of personal respect from polrUsi-ans of every degree The Kin appreciated his character highly. and Lansbury for his part admit ted his attitude ln earlier life to wards members of the Royal Family had been wrong. He had once declined a cigar from Klne Ed ward as Prince of Wales. "I have always felt ashamed of myself for riot being courteous," confessed Lansbury many years later. Lansbury married Elizabeth Jane Brine and there were four sons and eight daughters, one of whom tnarrled Ernest Thurtle, Labor leftwlnger. He was a teetotaller and non-smoker.
