England's first and only Jewish Prime Minister

Disraeli

England's first and only Jewish Prime Minister

Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, (21 December 1804 – 19 April 1881), was a British Conservative statesman and literary figure. He served in government for three decades, twice as Prime Minister. An Anglican, he was nonetheless the first and thus far only Prime Minister of Jewish heritage. Disraeli's greatest lasting achievement was the creation of the modern Conservative Party after the Corn Laws schism of 1846.
