  • “Teeth and spectacles”

    Attlee’s record for settling internal differences in the Labour Party fell in April 1951, when there was a damaging split over an austerity Budget brought in by the Chancellor, Hugh Gaitskell, to pay for the cost of Britain’s participation in the Korean War. Aneurin Bevan resigned to protest against the new charges for “teeth and spectacles” in the National Health Service introduced by that Budget, and was joined in this action by several senior ministers, including the future prime minister Harold Wilson, then the president of the Board of Trade. Thus escalated a battle between the left and right wings of the Party that continues today.[173] Finding it increasingly impossible to govern, Attlee’s only chance was to call a snap election in October 1951, in the hope of achieving a more workable majority and to regain authority.[174] The gamble failed: Labour narrowly lost to the Conservative Party, despite winning considerably more votes (achieving the largest Labour vote in electoral history). Attlee tendered his resignation as prime minister the following day, after six years and three months in office.[175]

    once you attach a thing into another thing, it becomes a part of that thing, making the thing you attached it to larger. the end result is one thing that is larger than both components.

    Thus, once you attach a graphics card to your computer, your computer is larger, and your graphics card is a smaller part of said computer
