Primrose Day in 2023

Today is Primrose Day, a day to honour Britain's greatest Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli. "You [England] do not want to be turned into a sort of a spinning-jenny machine kind of a nation." I once spent a lovely summer's day at his former home in Hughenden. https://t.co/tlLE3Saecs

Today we celebrate Primrose Day. This is the anniversary of the death of the British statesman and prime minister Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, on 19 April 1881. Disraeli defined the modern Tory party, providing it with true one-nation conservatism… https://t.co/KEHkoEhzPv

...That I might simply fancy there One little flower--a primrose fair, Just opening into sight; As in the days of infancy, An opening primrose seemed to me A source of strange delight... On Primrose Day I can think of nothing else but Anne Brontë's beautiful poem, Memory. https://t.co/sWdRvn5tnO

I’m genuinely reading Blake’s Disraeli without any idea about Primrose Day. Twitter has enlightened me. In any event it’s matched with an Argentinian Malbec in honour of the dodgy South American mining bubble that almost finished his career before it started #readingndrinking https://t.co/yFqYyEHlfE

Happy #Primrose Day! 🌼 Since Victorian times, April 19 has been 'Primrose Day’ in honour of the late Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli and his favourite flower. Primroses are often clustered together in woodlands and grasslands with tell-tale, yellow centres. 📷 Vaughn Matthews https://t.co/uSTMkkiwWi
