How successful was David Lloyd George and the British Government in dealing with the Irish question in 1918 – 1922? David Lloyd George and the British Government faced many issues during the years between 1918 – 1922. After having to postpone the Irish Home Rule Bill 1912 due to WW1, it left DLG and the British Government in a sticky situation once the war ended. Ireland was on the verge of a huge Civil War and they knew that it had to be resolved very soon. Despite this issue, DLG and the British Government set in place a range of Acts and treaty’s in order to successfully resolve this issue.
S7 also highlights the importance of the conscription crisis, which can be argued to be a result of British ignorance, or the manipulation and stirring up by the revolutionary party Sinn Fein which also had a key role in the conflict. Finally it can also be argued that other factors were involved, which allowed the Irish conflict to be triggered, such as the failure of Home Rule and the breakdown of the IPP particularly during the Ulster Crisis, and after the Easter Rebellion of 1914. To an extent, it can be argued that the main cause of the Anglo-Irish conflict of 1919-21 was nationalist extremism. Hepburn asses that 'their [extremists] first opportunity' arose during the Ulster Crisis, in events such as the Larne gun-running incident April 1914, which ultimately resulted a race between extreme nationalists and Ulster Unionists to become armed . The source describes how the extremists then spiralled
Larkin aimed his poems and every single person whereas Swift targeted the Irish specifically. Larkin comes up with a solution to the problem of fault and sin in his satire but does not defend it. He simply says that parents must not have kids. Swift presents a solution and defends it with reasonable arguments. Swift is also targeting an audience that he believes is ignorant.
Also, Grant used to be a very hostile man and he didn't care for anything but from visiting Jefferson he started to care about his life and the things in it, he dedicated his whole self to helping Jefferson become a man and he would get into arguments defending his choices with his aunt even if she was very important to him and they never fought. This is greatly shown when Grant is on a visit with Jefferson along with his aunt, Emma and the reverend Grant talks to Jefferson and tells him how he needs him and how he is someone who can do so much while he cant, then he began to cry. This shows how Grant wants to make a change in his life. Grant is a person who goes from being miserable and only cares for himself into someone who can love other things in life and fights for
There are many cases in which the Tsar’s position and the government’s position are genuinely threatened such as the mass demonstrations leading to many strikes which had the potential of economic failure. On the other hand there are also cases where they are not seriously threatened the mutinies of the armed services for example did not carry on after the war. The revolutionary’s aims had no intentions to threaten the position of the Tsar or his government however some people could argue that it did because of the misinterpretations of their demands. The Tsar and his government faced three main opponents the industrial workers, peasants and the reformist middle class. The fact that peasantry took part in the 1905 revolution (also known as Bloody Sunday)shows that the suspicions of the peasants changing were true and to the Tsar and his government this could have appeared to be a threat because they always feared peasantry development, the Tsar and the Empress especially.
He faced many trials being a boy, and always said he wasn’t who he was supposed to be. Jorgensen had a hard life growing up by being made fun of from other people and just having people not accept him for wanting to do girly things. Jorgensen life was full of many situations that really made him happy later on in time. He later in life decided to become a woman, he received all the surgical procedures to make that possible because he truly wasn’t happy as the person he was born to be. Not only did he turn into the woman he wanted to, he helped many people out there in the world that were just like him.
My friends are constantly asking why I care what others think and I still haven’t really figured that out yet. Maybe it’s because of my insecurities, or because all I really want is to accepted. I guess a lot of factors and life experiences contribute to how I feel about others opinions. Everyone is like that; they act and treat people certain ways for different reasons. Every one acts the way they do because of something that has happened in their life.
Grendel’s torture is even more painful because he is so close to the humans and yet always kept away at a distance. The humans even acknowledge that Grendel speaks their language when Grendel talks to Unferth “His eyebrows shot up. He’d understood me, no doubt of it now. ‘You can talk!’ he said. He backed away a step.” (Gardner p.83) but they still refused to accept him.
Tone had already come to realise that the demand for parliamentary reform without the granting of civil liberties to Catholics was meaningless, and he was disgusted by the failure of the Volunteers to take up the cause of Catholic emancipation. Wolfe Tone wanted the people of Ireland to show a united front. He wanted to put an end to the tyranny which was the ruling of England. Resolutions were put forward at the Belfast Volunteer Bastille celebrations on the 14th July by Tone. There were 3 resolutions put forward and the third one which was in relation to including Catholics in reform that was achieved was defeated.
On Easter Monday, the 24th April 1916, almost a year before the Russian revolution, the Irish Citizen Army, and the Irish Volunteers, started a rebellion against Imperial British rule in Ireland with the intention of setting set up an Irish Republic or in the case of James Connelly a Socialist Irish republic. The background to this rebellion was the centuries of oppressive rule of the Irish by British imperialists. This uprising was subsequently viewed by many as the start of the Irish war of independence. James Connelly, an Irish trade Union leader who had strong revolutionary socialist views became committed to both freeing Ireland of British rule as well as setting up a Socialist Irish Republic. In 1916 Connelly was the General Secretary of the Irish Transport and General Workers Union as well as military commander of the Irish Citizens Army.
