Was Glasgow s Radical War an inside job from London?

AS I have shown over the last few weeks, Scotland’s Radical War or Scottish Insurrection of 1820, centred on Glasgow, was a long time coming, and events in England and the influence of Englishmen in particular proved crucial in the run up to that revolutionary year. After the huge meeting on Glasgow Green in October 1816, the radical movement transformed as weavers and men from other trades formed societies, usually based on workers’ unions, to campaign for political change and better conditions for workers. The movement started in and around Glasgow and there was much talk of revolution – many of the radicals were former soldiers who had returned from beating Napoleon to find no jobs for them.

Provost lays wreath in memory of fatal shooting victims

INVERCLYDE S civic leader laid a wreath to mark the anniversary of a very dark day in Greenock s history. Provost Martin Brennan honoured the eight people who were shot dead 201 years ago in the town during the Radical War conflict. The atrocity happened when soldiers opened fire on a crowd who tried to free impoverished anti-government protesters being escorted to Greenock jail. The dead included an eight-year-old boy and a man aged 65, and a further 10 people were seriously injured. The names of all the victims and the words ‘remember the 8th of April, that bloody day when many were wounded and carried away’ are also inscribed along the wall at Bank Street, near to where the jail was located in 1820.
