Following his resignation from his highest post, this man's successor survived the Relugas Compact, which attempted to remove him from the leadership of the Liberal Party. This man's appointment to the post of Chief Secretary for Ireland may be the origin of the British phrase "Bob's your uncle," since his uncle was Robert Cecil, Lord Salisbury, who he later succeeded as Prime Minister. His enforcement of the Crimes Act in Ireland led him to be nicknamed "Bloody," and his government signed the Entente Cordiale with France. As Foreign Secretary under David Lloyd George, this politician sent a document later incorporated into the Treaty of Sevres to Walter Rothschild. That letter expressed the government's support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. For 10 points, name this British statesman who issued a famous "Declaration" in 1917.
