What Chancellor of the Exchequer and former Prime Minister was verbally attacked by H.H. Asquith?
David Lloyd George
Title: David Lloyd George
Passage: David Lloyd George, 1st Earl Lloyd-George of Dwyfor, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (17 January 1863 – 26 March 1945) was a British Liberal politician.  As Chancellor of the Exchequer (1908–1915), Lloyd George was a key figure in the introduction of many reforms which laid the foundations of the modern welfare state.  His most important role came as the highly energetic Prime Minister of the Wartime Coalition Government (1916–22), during and immediately after the First World War.  He was a major player at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 that reordered Europe after the defeat of the Central Powers.
Title: John Major
Passage: Sir John Major, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (born 29 March 1943) is a British politician who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party from 1990 to 1997.  He served as Foreign Secretary and then Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Thatcher Government from 1989 to 1990, and was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Huntingdon from 1979 until he retired in 2001.  Since Margaret Thatcher's death in 2013, he is the oldest living former Prime Minister.
Title: The Maurice Debate
Passage: The Maurice Debate was a debate in the British House of Commons which took place on 9 May 1918, during the First World War.  A senior British Army officer, Major-General Sir Frederick Maurice, made public the spectacular allegation that the War Cabinet had deliberately held British soldiers back from the Western Front, and had lied to Parliament about it.  The leader of the Liberal Party, H. H. Asquith, took up the allegations and attacked Prime Minister David Lloyd George, also a Liberal.  It ripped apart the Liberal Party.  While Asquith's attack was ineffective, Lloyd George vigorously defended his position, treating the debate like a vote of confidence.  He won over the House with a powerful, if misleading, speech, refuting all of Maurice's allegations.  The debate did not cause the profound split in the Liberal Party, but did make it more visible and harder to heal.  The main results were to strengthen Lloyd George, weaken Asquith, end public criticism of overall strategy, and strengthen civilian control of the military.
