EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the intense moment during John Elliot Burns' incendiary speech in Trafalgar Square on February 13, 1886. Burns, a radical statesman and trade unionist, is seen here addressing a large crowd of workers, who had gathered in protest against the government's decision to reduce the working day from 10 hours to 11 hours without a corresponding reduction in wages. Burns' impassioned words, filled with anger and defiance, were credited with igniting the riot that ensued, resulting in clashes between the police and the protesters. Burns, born in 1858, was a prominent figure in the British labour movement and a member of Parliament from 1892 to 1918. He was a strong advocate for workers' rights and social justice, and his speeches were known for their fiery rhetoric and unwavering commitment to the cause. This image, taken during a pivotal moment in the history of the labour movement in Britain, provides a powerful reminder of the passion and determination of those who fought for workers' rights and social reform in the late 19th century. The photograph, taken in 1886, is a poignant reminder of the struggles and sacrifices made by working people in their quest for fair treatment and dignity. It also serves as a testament to the power of words and the role they can play in shaping history. This image, from the extensive collection of historical photographs at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the past and sheds light on the rich history of the labour movement in Britain.
