"I'm an optimist, but an optimist who carries a raincoat." - Harold Wilson (1916-1995) who is regarded as one of the most prominent and successful British politicians of the twentieth century. To date he is the most electorally-successful 20th Century Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom - having won four General Elections (in 1964, 1966 and two in 1974). He is also considered by many as one of the more intellectual politicians of the era.
