You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:44, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Henry Mathison Pelling''' (27 August 1920 – 14 October 1997) was a British historian best known for his works on the history of the [[Labour Party (UK)|British Labour Party]].

==Life==
Pelling was born in [[Prenton]], [[Metropolitan Borough of Wirral|Wirral]], the son of a wealthy stockbroker. He was educated at [[Birkenhead School]] and [[St John's College, Cambridge]], where he gained firsts in Part I of the Classical tripos and Part II of the Historical tripos prior to completing a PhD in 1950.<ref name="WW">((Who's Who | title=PELLING, Henry Mathison | id = U181069 | type = was | volume = 2018 | edition = online))</ref> He began his career as a fellow at [[Queen's College, Oxford]], where he remained until his return to St John's in 1966.<ref name="WW"/> He was Reader in British History at [[Cambridge University|Cambridge]] from 1976 to 1980, at which point he decided to retire from university teaching. Doing so, however, led St John's to terminate his college fellowship as well, much to his chagrin, and it was only after a great deal of protest that he was reinstated (an interregnum he referred to thereafter as ''socius ejectus'', in imitation of [[Thomas Baker (antiquarian)|Thomas Baker]]).<ref>[[Peter Clarke (historian)|Clarke, Peter]], 'Obituary: A life of Labour and capital: Henry Pelling', ''The Guardian'', 21 October 1997.</ref><ref>[https://www.joh.cam.ac.uk/library/special_collections/early_books/baker.htm 'Thomas Baker (1656-1740)']. ''St John's College, Cambridge''. Retrieved 4 January 2023.</ref> He was elected a [[Fellow of the British Academy]] (FBA) in 1992.<ref name="WW"/> Pelling's collection of British left-wing political pamphlets is held at [[Senate House, London|Senate House Library]], while his papers are lodged with St John's College.

==Publications==
Pelling's main contributions to the study of the Labour Party were as follows:
*''The Origins of the Labour Party'' (1954) and 
*''A Short History of the Labour Party'' (1961) (later editions co-written with Alastair J. Reid)
