Explain why free trade was an issue in the 1906 General Election campaign. There were various reasons why free trade was considered an issue around the 1906 General Election‚ much of this in my opinion was around the opportunism that was on offer to the Liberal Party.

Adding this award to our long list of titles in the same field like "The World’s Most Corrupt Government" did not hurt either. It seems as if we are really competing against other nations for this type of recognitions.
