POLITICS IN BRITAIN.
ATTITUDE OF MR BONAR LAW. ASCERTAINING PARTY’S WISHES. LONDON, Oct. 20. As Mr Bonar Law is no longer leader of the Conservatives, he informed the King •that, he must, first consult the party and ■ascertain whether■ he has their confidence. A meeting of the Conservative Commoners and Peers during the week-end will therefore be the next outstanding development. Doubtless Mr Bonar Law will be elected leader and be in a position to form a Government in accordance with the King’s invitation. Mr Bonar Law on Thursday night, interviewed Earl Derby and other supporters. Meanwhile Mr Lloyd George is technically Premier and will keep his engagements. He will accompany the Prince of Wales on Friday to the Guildhall and also speak at Leeds on Saturday. Air Llovd George is personally against the Continental group system, believing that the large parties afford move stable government. He is therefore understood to be in favour of avoiding the immediate creation of a new party.—A. and N.Z. cable.
