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.

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 favoured 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.
