Harrypotter even if your understanding that Franelli and Bakunin were Freemasons is correct you would have to clearly show that any such tie to the Fraternity played more that a circumstancial role in influencing them I think you may be assuming that European liberal activists of the mid to late 1800 became active in liberal politics because they were Freemasons when in fact it was usually the other way around they became involved in Freemasonry becuase they thought it would mesh with their pre existing liberal leanings I would suggest that you go slow discuss your ideas here on the talk page and build consensus prior to adding anything on this topic to the article I would also like you to clarify your final sentence you say there were substantial between Grand Orient of France and United Grand Lodge of England in this period First what period are you talking about And second substantial WHAT between GOdF and UGLE If you are talking about the mid to late 1800s then I would have to say that what is obvious is that there was growing emnity and tention between these two bodies leading up to a complete split in 1877
