Annual general elections is a good thing I am "convinced"

The Chartist Tricolour

edit

I (perhaps mis-) understood that the Chartist called for a British Republic and in fact there is a Chartist Tricolour. What does it look like? [[PaulinSaudi 06:38, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)]]

To much missing

edit

It is impossible to consider this article credible, there is far to much background missing, we are in the bicentenary year of Peterloo 1819, yet not a mention, it was a factor leading to the movement, yes its verifiable (British Library), I hope there are editors out there who have the time to assert that the British Library details on this need to be included, source https://www.bl.uk/romantics-and-victorians/articles/chartism#

For those who like to edit Wikipedia maybe this is something someone can find time to do here, I am not volunteering.

Chartism in France and Portugal before?

edit

I'm a casual reader, and have been searching for the early uses of the terms "Chartist" and "Chartism" on Newspapers.com. It seems there were Chartist movement in France (by 1820), Portugal (by 1837), and England (by 1837) before the People's Charter in 1838. Was this a case of embracing the name from other movements, or were they one and the same? I'll comment again if I can find a scholarly source to clear this up. ~ Peter S.
