  1. Ulster Unionist Party leadership election, 1969

    The 1969 Ulster Unionist Party leadership election was the first contested election in the Party s sixty four year history. In 1963 Terence O Neill had succeeded Basil Brooke, 1st Viscount Brookeborough Lord Brookeborough as Party Leader and Prime Minister of Northern Ireland by emerging rather than by winning a ballot, despite having strong competition from both Brian Faulkner and Jack Andrews . On O Neill s resignation following the inconclusive result of the Northern Ireland general election, 1969 1969 general election , the division of support within the Parliamentary Party was such that an election was required to choose the new leader. Candidates Brian Faulkner , Minister of Commerce Major James Chichester Clark , Minister of Agriculture and distant cousin of O Neill Result Chichester Clark 18 br Faulkner 17 It had initially been assumed that Faulkner would win the contest, however many within the Parliamentary Party were determined that a hardliner such as Faulkner should not be leader. Jack Andrews , leader of the Senate of Northern Ireland Senate , came under pressure from many including O Neill, to stand, however he refused. In His memoirs, Kenneth Bloomfield suggests that Chichester Clark s resignation from the cabinet which precipitated O Neill s own resignation, had been a ploy to deprive Faulkner. In his own memoirs, Faulkner claims that it was a matter of class distinction, where the upper classes had conspired to keep the Premiership out of middle class hands.

O Neill voted for his distant cousin, and also used his casting vote in his favour. It has been said that he favoured Chichester Clark not due to their distant family links, but as Faulkner had been stabbing him in the back for longer ref Walker, G, A History of the Ulster Unionist Part ...   more details
