- What can a failed uprising tell us about Victorian politics? Quite a lot, actually.
Just a minor correction: I said that Scotland's strikes started on the 1st of April; it was actually a few days later, but the Yorkshire uprisings were organised to coincide with these.
These short snippets of Yorkshire history are fascinating and ought to be seen by way more people!
Just discovered your channel in this world of youtube and you are certainly a fabulous storyteller of British - pardon me, Yorkshire history. Looking forward to exploring more of your videos telling of adventures in your land of Yorkshire.
Yorkshire has a larger population then Scotland and an economy twice the size of wales yet we have lesser powers to make our own decisions. Constant underfunding just proves that Westminster still does not care for Yorkshire. Yorkshire can in theory go it alone as an independent nation but that’s never going to happen. So the only other option is full devolution in Yorkshire, to have our voices heard and to have investment we desperately need.
@Ghibli92 I’m not saying they should I’m a Unionist all I’m saying is that the facts and statistics point to Yorkshire being very successful if they was to become independent.
@Ghibli92 I’m not saying it should again I’m simply pointing to the fact Yorkshire is a berry successful region
@Ghibli92 nooo federalisation is ew
An excellent telling. Thank you for sharing these forgotten notes of history. I really wish you got more views.
Absolutely loving your videos, I'm learning a lot and find them really entertaining and informative. Can I make two small suggestions? Love the intro, but it needs a bigger punch at the end as it seems to fade out. Also at the end, you need to hold the last scene a bit longer as you say the last phrase, then bang, you're gone. Lots of channels use an outro, maybe record a bit you can add to every video? Of course, I'll still watch them anyway, and ignore me if you think I'm wrong! Keep em coming!
Yet again, you have taught me something I did not know. Good stuff!
Oh wow I'm glad I found this channel. I've been trying to learn the yorkshire accent and haven't had any good higher-pitched samples. You not only provide a good training voice for me, but also some intriguing history!
Fascinating story. Thanks for all your hard work. I really enjoy these videos 😊
Just discovered your channel, thank you this was really interesting. Now subscribed.

I'm a proud yorkie tyke and i never knew this.

Another great little story from history, thank you!
You are doing a wonderful job Angela...i love your channel
Very interesting! Thank you
Just found your channel 👍 well done really enjoying your videos 👍 keep up the good work 👍😀🐾
Fascinating, and I didn't know about it, either.
Ta very muchly... ☝️😎
I knew nothing about this (almost) uprising. Good tale!
The mention of Halifax made me think of the nannygoat yeomanry
Thanks, Catherine - nice little hidden story! Deluded wretches in Huddersfield and Barnsley - nothing changed much there then! (I’m a Loiner 😎)
I like the way you pronounce the short u-vowel.
Things like the Corn Laws, the Six Laws and the reaction to them, have lead directly to a lot of the freedoms we have. Wonderful reminder about why we ignore our history at our very great peril.
There is so much of our history out there, my foreign wife is totally amazed by it, we should be proud of our history and not ashamed, once again the saying you're never too old to learn comes to mind.
Nice
One question: Were the pubs around Huddersfield closed before the planned attacks?
@@CatherineWarr Might explain one failed gathering then... ;)
@@CaskTheology A distinct lack of what used to be called Dutch Courage.
@@daveh3997 Or perhaps too much ;)
On the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, the people from Yorkshire rose up in defiance
I wonder if Yorkshiremen would be more determined nowadays, or would they simply melt like snowflakes do. Enjoyed the video though.
