Harold Macmillan, a Conservative politician became prime minister
in 1957 and served until 1963. He repaired the rift between the USA
and Britain created by Suez and secured for Britain co-operation on
issues of nuclear defense. Paradoxically his success with the USA
jeopardized his efforts to get Britain into the European Economic
Community, for it was one of the reasons why de Gaulle vetoed
Britain's application to join in 1963. After early successes at
home as well as abroad (he acquired the nickname 'Supermac'), his
party was returned with an increased majority in 1959. The later
years of his administration were clouded by economic troubles, the
EC veto and the Profumo scandal. But it was ill health that caused
him to resign in 1963.
