The Primrose League was an organization founded in this man's honor two years after his death. This man reportedly remarked, "I have climbed to the top of the greasy pole" upon reaching his highest office. In his youth, he published the unsuccessful newspaper The Representative and led the Young England movement in an attempt to promote working class interests. He served as Chancellor of the Exchequer under the (*) Earl of Derby during the "Who? Who?" Ministry and joined with Lord George Bentinck in forcing Robert Peel's resignation over the repeal of the Corn Laws. This man's failure to respond to the "Bulgarian Horrors" made him the target of the Midlothian Campaign. For 10 points, name Conservative prime minister, a rival of William Gladstone.
