i heard this on the radio yesterday, so cannot claim any credit for it. I think I know the answer, but am happy to be corrected.
Who is the last PM to both enter and leave office as a result of general election outcomes?
Ted Heath
Ted Heath?
Yes, that's who I came up with and it would have been Harold Wilson for the first time after that, Lord knows who the next one was - Attlee?
Wilson actually left office in between elections on 16th March 1976 so he did not leave office as the result of an election.
But on the first occasion he came in 1964 as the result of an election and left in 1970 after another oneso I susppose idepends how you interpret the question
I think you are right Attlee was the one before this
