Midloth'i kampaania

Midloth'i kampaania (inglise keeles Midlothian campaign) oli Briti Liberaalse Partei poliitiku William Ewart Gladstone'i poolt aastatel 1878–1880 peetud välispoliitikat käsitlevate kõnede sari. Seda on peetud maailma esimeseks valimiskampaaniaks.^[1]^[2] See sai nime Midlothiani valimisringkonna järgi, kus šoti päritolu Gladstone 1880. aasta valimistel edukalt kandideeris.

Peaminister Benjamin Disraeli proovis avalikkuse tähelepanu majanduskriisist välispoliitikale suunata ning hakkas oma kampaanias rääkima halvenevatest suhetest Türgiga. Gladstone hakkas vastukaaluks oma kõnedes valitsust süüdistama majanduslikus saamatuses, seadusandluse eiramises ja välisasjadega toimetulematuses.

Midloth'i kampaania ühendas Liberaalse Partei Gladstone'i taha ja viis liberaalid 1880. aasta valimisvõidule.^[3]
