Whigs (British political party)
The Whigs were a political faction and then a political party in the parliaments of England, Scotland, Great Britain and the United Kingdom. Between the 1680s and 1850s, they contested power with their rivals, the Tories. The Whigs' origin lay in constitutional monarchism and opposition to absolute monarchy. The Whigs played a central role in the Glorious Revolution of 1688, and were the standing enemies of the Stuart kings and pretenders, who were Roman Catholic. The Whigs took full control of the government in 1715, and remained totally dominant until King George III, coming to the throne in 1760, allowed Tories back in. The "Whig Supremacy" (1715–1760) was enabled by the Hanoverian succession of George I in 1714 and the failed Jacobite rising of 1715 by Tory rebels. The Whigs thoroughly purged the Tories from all major positions in government, the army, the Church of England, the legal profession and local officials. The major leader of the Whigs in this period was Robert Walpole, who maintained control of the government in the period 1721–1742; his protégé was Henry Pelham (1743–1754).

Political party
A political party is a group of people who come together to contest elections and hold power in the government. They agree on some policies and programmes for the society with a view to promote the collective good or to further their supporters' interests.
While there is some international commonality in the way political parties are recognized, and in how they operate, there are often many differences, and some are significant. Many political parties have an ideological core, but some do not, and many represent very different ideologies than they did when first founded. In democracies, political parties are elected by the electorate to run a government. Many countries have numerous powerful political parties, such as Germany and India and some nations have one-party systems, such as China. The United States is a two-party system, with its two most powerful parties being the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
Historical dimensions
Political factions
The first political factions, cohering around a basic, if fluid, set of principles emerged from the Exclusion Crisis and Glorious Revolution in late-17th-century England. The Whigs supported Protestant constitutional monarchy against absolute rule and the Tories, originating in the Royalist (or "Cavalier") faction of the English Civil War, were conservative royalist supporters of a strong monarchy as a counterbalance to the republican tendencies of Whigs, who were the dominant political faction for most of the first half of the 18th century; they supported the Hanoverian succession of 1715 against the Jacobite supporters of the deposed Roman Catholic Stuart dynasty and were able to purge Tory politicians from important government positions after the failed Jacobite rising of 1715. The leader of the Whigs was Robert Walpole, who maintained control of the government in the period 1721–1742; his protégé was Henry Pelham (1743–1754).

.270 British
The .270 British (or .270 Enfield) is an experimental intermediate rifle cartridge that was developed by the British at the same time as the .280 British as a potential successor to the .303 British cartridge. The rimless cartridge has a base diameter of 11.3 mm (like the Russian 7.62×39mm) and a case length of 46 mm. The bullet is a standard .270/.277 caliber bullet with a light 100 gr weight with a muzzle velocity of 840 m/s (2,800 ft/s). It was not good at long range, but its slender case had the potential to fire a heavier bullet at a relatively high velocity. It was optimized for shorter ranges, while the .280 favored long-range performance to try to meet U.S. requirements.
The cartridge was not adopted, the British initially focused development on the .280, then ultimately chose the NATO-standard 7.62×51mm cartridge.

Party
A party is a gathering of people who have been invited by a host for the purposes of socializing, conversation, recreation, or as part of a festival or other commemoration of a special occasion. A party will typically feature food and beverages, and often music and dancing or other forms of entertainment. In many Western countries, parties for teens and adults are associated with drinking alcohol such as beer, wine or distilled spirits.
Description
Some parties are held in honor of a specific person, day, or event, such as a birthday party, a Super Bowl party, or a St. Patrick’s Day party. Parties of this kind are often called celebrations. A party is not necessarily a private occasion. Public parties are sometimes held in restaurants, pubs, beer gardens, nightclubs or bars, and people attending such parties may be charged an admission fee by the host. Large parties in public streets may celebrate events such as Mardi Gras or the signing of a peace treaty ending a long war.

The Mighty Boosh (series 3)
The Mighty Boosh's third series was originally broadcast between 15 November 2007 and 20 December 2007. The series features five main cast members; Julian Barratt, Noel Fielding, Rich Fulcher, Michael Fielding and Dave Brown. The third series revolves around Howard Moon and Vince Noir (Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding), and the adventures they have whilst running a second-hand shop. A DVD of the series was released on 11 February 2008 in Region 2 and 7 August in Region 4.
Overview
Setting
Whereas the second series was set mainly in a flat in Dalston, England, the third series was set in a second hand shop below the flat called the Nabootique, owned by Naboo, and run by Howard Moon and Vince Noir. The flat, however, is re-used for most of the setting of the episode "Party".
Production
Series 3 had the smallest budget of all three series to date. Filming for the series took place in seven weeks, from July to September 2007, in a warehouse in a disused Ministry of Defence site in Surrey, England.

Party (Beyoncé song)
"Party" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé for her fourth studio album, 4 (2011). It features guest vocals from American rapper André 3000, and was released by Columbia Records as the third single from 4 on August 30, 2011. The song was written by Kanye West, Jeff Bhasker, Beyoncé, Dexter Mills, Douglas Davis and Ricky Walters and produced by Beyoncé and West and co-produced by Bhasker. A midtempo R&B song, "Party" exhibits elements of the 1980s funk and soul music, and samples the 1985 song "La Di Da Di". It recalls the work of New Edition and Prince, among others. Built on a 808-retro beat, multi-tracked harmonies, and a smooth groove, the song's instrumentation includes slow-bouncing synthesizers, keyboard tones, and drums. Lyrically, "Party" gives ode to political themes such as feminism and sexual empowerment. In his rap verses, André 3000 references milk and gets philosophical about his own career. "Party" was nominated for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 54th Grammy Awards.

Description: The Whigs were a political faction and then a political party in the parliaments of England, Scotland, Great Britain, Ireland and the United Kingdom. Between the 1680s and 1850s, they contested power with their rivals, the Tories. The Whigs' origin lay in constitutional monarchism and opposition to absolute monarchy. The Whigs played a central role in the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and were the standing enemies of the Stuart kings and pretenders, who were Roman Catholic. The Whigs took full control of the government in 1715 and remained totally dominant until King George III, coming to the throne in 1760, allowed Tories back in. The Whig Supremacy was enabled by the Hanoverian succession of George I in 1714 and the failed Jacobite rising of 1715 by Tory rebels. The Whigs thoroughly purged the Tories from all major positions in government, the army, the Church of England, the legal profession and local offices. The Party's hold on power was so strong and durable, historians call the period from roughly 1714 to 1783 the age of the Whig Oligarchy. The first great leader of the Whigs was Robert Walpole, who maintained control of the government through the period 1721–1742 and whose protégé Henry Pelham led from 1743 to 1754. Both parties began as loose groupings or tendencies, but became quite formal by 1784 with the ascension of Charles James Fox as the leader of a reconstituted Whig Party, arrayed against the governing party of the new Tories under William Pitt the Younger. Both parties were founded on rich politicians more than on popular votes, and there were elections to the House of Commons, but a small number of men controlled most of the voters. The Whig Party slowly evolved during the 18th century. The Whig tendency supported the great aristocratic families, the Protestant Hanoverian succession and toleration for nonconformist Protestants , while some Tories supported the exiled Stuart royal family's claim to the throne and virtually all Tories supported the established Church of England and the gentry. Later on, the Whigs drew support from the emerging industrial interests and wealthy merchants, while the Tories drew support from the landed interests and the royal family. However, by the first half of the 19th century the Whig political programme came to encompass not only the supremacy of parliament over the monarch and support for free trade, but Catholic emancipation, the abolition of slavery and expansion of the franchise . The 19th century Whig support for Catholic emancipation was a complete reversal of the party's historic sharply anti-Catholic position at its late 17th century origin.

Today's Daily Dose short history film covers the rise and fall of the Whig Party in early American politics. The filmmaker has included the original voice over script to further assist your understanding:
Today on The Daily Dose, The Rise & Fall of the Whig Party.
Once one of two most prominent political parties in the United States, the Whig party rose to power in 1834 in objection to President Andrew Jackson’s populist ideals and outright usurpation of congressional powers, after “King Andrew the First,” as the president became known to the Whigs, refused to fund the second National Bank. While the Jacksonian Democrats attempted to pigeonhole the Whigs as wealthy Northern elites bent on sidestepping the will of the people, Whig party members comprised a coalition of northern and southern politicians, who railed against Jackson’s forced relocation of Native Americans, at the same time dodging as best they could the escalating issue of slavery within the ever-expanding United States. Some of the party’s most influential pre-Civil War leaders included Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, William Seward, John Quincy Adams and one-term Illinois congressman Abraham Lincoln.
During its 20-year existence, the Whig Party remained staunchly critical of westward expansion under the banner of manifest destiny, sending William Henry Harrison to the White House after the presidential election of 1840, who subsequently died of pneumonia just 32 days after taking office. After Whig presidential candidate Henry Clay lost to Democrat James Polk in the presidential election of 1844, Whig candidate and Mexican-American war hero Zachary Taylor again took the White House in the election of 1848, while his death two years later from a gastro-intestinal illness did much to derail the forward momentum of the party.
When the divisive issue of slavery came to a head in the 1850s, including the wildly unpopular Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act and the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, the Whig party collapsed just as abruptly as its meteoric rise to power. With northern and southern legislators hopelessly deadlocked over the issue of slavery, prominent Whigs such as Thaddeus Stevens, William Seward and Abraham Lincoln switched to the newly-formed Republican party, while conservative anti-immigrant, nativist proponents within the failing Whig party followed Millard Fillmore to the Know Nothing party, leading William Seward to deliver the Whig’s eulogy in 1855, when he stated, “Let, then, the Whig party pass. It committed a grievous fault, and grievously hath it answered it. Let it march out of the field, therefore, with all the honors,” making the Whig party, a brief yet bygone era in early American politics.
And there you have it, the rise and fall of the Whig party, today on The Daily Dose.

As Britain heads into election season (if you didn't know a bunch of elections are taking place on May 6th) we thought we should take a look at the parties which don't normally attract attention. So in this video, we look at Britain's fringe parties, the ones who have no real shot at winning but for some reason still take part.

Hi friends,
I am Vinay S. Pendse, welcome to my educational channel "Literature Guide", which is created in collaboration with Dr. Archana Bobade, HOD (English), Shri Shivaji Arts and Commerce College, Amravati, regarding English literature and criticism. The channel 'Literature Guide" is designed for the people who want to expand their horizon of knowledge of English Literature and it will be helpful for the students of literature as well as people.
This video is about the emergence of the Whig and Tory parties in England. In the reign of William and Mary, two chief parties - the Whig and the Tory dominated the political arena. These two derogatory terms for the two parties were employed in Charles II's reign. It was used for those people who disliked James Stuart and they wanted to keep him away from the throne because he favoured the Catholics.
This is a short video like all my videos but it will be a great support for the students to understand the origin and role of these parties and their alliance to a few literary writers.

Description: The Whigs were a political faction and then a political party in the parliaments of England, Scotland, Great Britain, Ireland and the United Kingdom. Between the 1680s and 1850s, they contested power with their rivals, the Tories. The Whigs' origin lay in constitutional monarchism and opposition to absolute monarchy. The Whigs played a central role in the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and were the standing enemies of the Stuart kings and pretenders, who were Roman Catholic. The Whigs took full control of the government in 1715 and remained totally dominant until King George III, coming to the throne in 1760, allowed Tories back in. The Whig Supremacy was enabled by the Hanoverian succession of George I in 1714 and the failed Jacobite rising of 1715 by Tory rebels. The Whigs thoroughly purged the Tories from all major positions in government, the army, the Church of England, the legal profession and local offices. The Party's hold on power was so strong and durable, historians call the period from roughly 1714 to 1783 the age of the Whig Oligarchy. The first great leader of the Whigs was Robert Walpole, who maintained control of the government through the period 1721–1742 and whose protégé Henry Pelham led from 1743 to 1754. Both parties began as loose groupings or tendencies, but became quite formal by 1784 with the ascension of Charles James Fox as the leader of a reconstituted Whig Party, arrayed against the governing party of the new Tories under William Pitt the Younger. Both parties were founded on rich politicians more than on popular votes, and there were elections to the House of Commons, but a small number of men controlled most of the voters. The Whig Party slowly evolved during the 18th century. The Whig tendency supported the great aristocratic families, the Protestant Hanoverian succession and toleration for nonconformist Protestants , while some Tories supported the exiled Stuart royal family's claim to the throne and virtually all Tories supported the established Church of England and the gentry. Later on, the Whigs drew support from the emerging industrial interests and wealthy merchants, while the Tories drew support from the landed interests and the royal family. However, by the first half of the 19th century the Whig political programme came to encompass not only the supremacy of parliament over the monarch and support for free trade, but Catholic emancipation, the abolition of slavery and expansion of the franchise . The 19th century Whig support for Catholic emancipation was a complete reversal of the party's historic sharply anti-Catholic position at its late 17th century origin.

Today's Daily Dose short history film covers the rise and fall of the Whig Party in early American politics. The filmmaker has included the original voice over script to further assist your understanding:
Today on The Daily Dose, The Rise & Fall of the Whig Party.
Once one of two most prominent political parties in the United States, the Whig party rose to power in 1834 in objection to President Andrew Jackson’s populist ideals and outright usurpation of congressional powers, after “King Andrew the First,” as the president became known to the Whigs, refused to fund the second National Bank. While the Jacksonian Democrats attempted to pigeonhole the Whigs as wealthy Northern elites bent on sidestepping the will of the people, Whig party members comprised a coalition of northern and southern politicians, who railed against Jackson’s forced relocation of Native Americans, at the same time dodging as best they could the escalating issue of slavery within the ever-expanding United States. Some of the party’s most influential pre-Civil War leaders included Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, William Seward, John Quincy Adams and one-term Illinois congressman Abraham Lincoln.
During its 20-year existence, the Whig Party remained staunchly critical of westward expansion under the banner of manifest destiny, sending William Henry Harrison to the White House after the presidential election of 1840, who subsequently died of pneumonia just 32 days after taking office. After Whig presidential candidate Henry Clay lost to Democrat James Polk in the presidential election of 1844, Whig candidate and Mexican-American war hero Zachary Taylor again took the White House in the election of 1848, while his death two years later from a gastro-intestinal illness did much to derail the forward momentum of the party.
When the divisive issue of slavery came to a head in the 1850s, including the wildly unpopular Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act and the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, the Whig party collapsed just as abruptly as its meteoric rise to power. With northern and southern legislators hopelessly deadlocked over the issue of slavery, prominent Whigs such as Thaddeus Stevens, William Seward and Abraham Lincoln switched to the newly-formed Republican party, while conservative anti-immigrant, nativist proponents within the failing Whig party followed Millard Fillmore to the Know Nothing party, leading William Seward to deliver the Whig’s eulogy in 1855, when he stated, “Let, then, the Whig party pass. It committed a grievous fault, and grievously hath it answered it. Let it march out of the field, therefore, with all the honors,” making the Whig party, a brief yet bygone era in early American politics.
And there you have it, the rise and fall of the Whig party, today on The Daily Dose.
