Benjamin Disraeli

Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield (21 December 1804 – 19 April 1881) was a British politician and writer who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice.

Biography

During his first term in 1868, Disraeli introduced the Corrupt Practices Act which was meant to end electoral bribery. Wishing to maintain its grasp on London, the British Rite of the Templar Order plotted to kill Disraeli to stall the implementation of the act indefinitely and allow its favored candidate, William Ewart Gladstone, to become Prime Minister.

The Templar James Brudenell hired men to kill Disraeli, although the plot was foiled by the Assassin Jacob Frye. He infiltrated Disraeli's carriage after learning from a the Templar-affiliated gang Blighters member of the plot, pretending to be his bodyguard. Though Disraeli was suspicious, his wife Mary Anne allowed Jacob to speak. A gunshot interrupted their conversation and Jacob defended the Disraelis from their Blighters attackers. While Jacob was busy with the attackers, more Blighters arrived and hijacked Disraeli's carriage. Disraeli highly suspected Gladstone to be the one responsible for the attacks.

Trivia

  • Even if Jacob is detected while trying to approach Disraeli's carriage, neither he nor his wife Mary Anne Disraeli appear to be alarmed.
  • Disraeli was affectionately referred to as "Dizzy" by his wife Mary on many occasions.
