(edited)

William Ewart Gladstone (1809-1898) war zuletzt von 1892 bis 1894 Premierminister von UK, insgesamt 12 Jahre über 4 nicht durchgehende Perioden.

Obwohl er in Liverpool (England) geboren wurde, war Gladstone schottischer Abstammung. Seine Eltern waren Schotten, daher vermutlich auch das Denkmal in Edinburgh.

It's nice to see someone this type of history. I guess he must have been a decent Prime Minister if people kept going back to vote for him.

Just realized he was in total 12 years PM of UK, but over 4 non-consecutive periods, his last term lasting only 2 years.

William Ewart was the original Prime Minister, it was not easy to become Prime Minister in the UK because he were born in another country.
