Answer:

Disraeli was born into a Jewish-Italian family, but his father had all his children baptized when Bejamin was 13 years old. The decision was of vital importance for Disraeli's career, as people of Jewish religion were not allowed to stand for parliament until 1858.

From an early age Disraeli longed to make his mark in society. After an education in small private schools he joined a law firm at the age of 17. Dissatisfied with this mundane occupation he speculated in South American mining shares, which by 1825 placed him so much in debt that he did not recover financially until 14 years later, when he managed to marry a rich widow.

Around 1827 Disraeli had a nervous breakdown and spent the next few years writing novels in which he satirized living personalities. He lived the life of a party dandy and was known for good looks, conceited behaviour and flamboyant dress sense.

In 1831 Disraeli decided to try his luck in politics. After two unsuccessful attempts to be elected to parliament as an independent he joined the conservative Tory party and became a member of parliament in 1837.

The first period of Disraeli's parliamentary career was more determined by his ambition than by political insight. When the conservative government reacted to the Irish potato famine of 1845 by abolishing the Corn Laws (which had placed heavy protective duties on imported grain and limited the amount of relief supplies), Disraeli supported the maintaining of import duties; he led the opposition against the policy of his own party and forced the resignation of the government. With the party now in opposition for 6 years, he worked hard to convince the same party that protectionism was a thing of the past.

Disraeli became Chancellor of the Exchequer (finance minister) when the party returned to power in 1852 - 1859 and again from 1865. He became Prime Minister in 1868 and again in 1874 - 1880. During these years he developed a clear sense for the steps that had to be taken to take the conservative forces into modern industrial capitalism. He promoted "Tory democracy" and reformed the electoral system through the parliamentary reform bill of 1867, which doubled the number of people eligible to vote without giving the parties on the left a significant advantage. His Artizans' and Labourers' Dwellings Improvement Act formed the basis for the clearing of slums, and the health system was reformed through the Public Health Act of 1875.

These and other measures - such as two factory acts of 1874 and 1878, which regulated working conditions in factories, and the legalization of unions through the Trade Union Act of 1871 coupled with strict limitations of union rights in the Criminal Law Amendment Act - were effective to neutralize the growing discontent of the working class and the rise of its organizations during the 1850s. This allowed Disraeli to turn to foreign policy and expand the British empire. In 1875 he acquired 44% of the shares of the Suez Canal Company, completing the deal with borrowed money before parliament could give its official approval. In the following year he introduced a bill that made Queen Victoria the Empress of India, making him her "favourate prime minister".
