Abstract

The expression, “A week is a long time in politics” is attributed to Harold Wilson and made when giving a lobby briefing for journalists during the sterling crisis of 1964. Significantly, Liberal leader, Joseph Chamberlain, in 1886 stated, “In politics, there is no use in looking beyond the next fortnight.”
