David Lloyd George, 1st Earl Lloyd George of Dwyfor (1863 - 1945), Welsh Liberal statesman, addressing a large crowd at Rochdale during the election campaign of 1923. Forgetting he was using a microphone to address the people of Rochdale (previously represented by Richard Cobden), Lloyd George asked 'aside' to a supporter 'Was Cobden a Lancashire man?'. The microphone picked up the 'aside', causing a great deal of laughter in the crowd.
