Not for Joe!, 1885. Mr George Goschen had been the Liberal governments President of the Poor Law Board. Here he is being wooed by Lord Randolph Churchill of the Conservative Party, having been refused a place on the coach being driven by Joseph Chamberlain, who represents the Radical wing of the Liberal Party. Mr Goschen had recently been outspoken in his criticism of the Radicals and their policies, but Churchill and other Conservatives had made it known that they would be more than willing to accept him into their fold.
