Shouldn’t Peel count as a Peelite, for at least part of his administration? Aberdeen looks so isolated. Septentrionalis 14:28, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Except that the Peelites didn’t emerge as a group pre 1846. Until then he was PM under increasing fire within his own party, not a breakaway. Timrollpickering 15:09, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

“apart from Sir Alec Douglas-Home’s period as a member of the Government while in the House of Lords 1951-63 (though he was previously the elected member for Lanark 1931-1945). Before becoming Prime Minister he was returned to the Commons by winning a by-election on the recess death of MP Gilmour Leburn a member of the Conservative’s sister party the Unionist Party (Scotland).”

This is doubtful. It seems that Home was appointed PM by the Queen, before he was elected to the House of Commons.Lathamibird (talk) 21:20, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The career-based timeline shows Rosebery and Balfour being active politicians until their deaths, counting their last years in the Lords as being in Parliament. But this is not applied equally to Russell (active in the Lords until at least 1875, and a peer until his death like Rosebery and Balfour); nor, for that matter, to Baldwin, Attlee, Eden, Macmillan, Home, Wilson, Callaghan and Thatcher, all of whom went to the Lords after leaving the Commons. Also, Badlwin should be above MacDonald as his first premiership came before MacDonald’s first (and MacDonald’s party switch isn’t recorded). —146.90.216.208 (talk) 13:24, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like John Major’s colour is red when it should be blue. Code looks correct, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lmfsps (talk • contribs) 20:14, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gordon Brown’s colour is blue while it should be red 89.64.3.229 (talk) 13:13, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While accurate,by putting the names of the prime minsters aside their time in office creates visual confusion which makes it quite easy to get the wrong idea, if somebody can made an edit to the graph to better list names in a more readable manor that would be nice.
