Talk:Dublin lock-out

message: Ok first of all I agree that the article should in fact be entitled 1913 Strike and Lockout, as this would be less biased. Added to that though I think there should be more background information; living and working conditions of the working class and impoverished in 1913 Dublin, a brief explanation of Connolly and Larkin's socio-economic beliefs, and a brief passage about William Martin Murphy (including a mention of the fact that, relative to many employers at the time, Murphy was a good employer). There should also be a more detailed account of the events, including the involvement of the Church, relations with and reactions of the British Unions, the Kiddies' Scheme (please try especially hard to treat of the Kiddies' scheme in an unbiased manner, this can be difficult) and probably myriad other details that this article has excluded. Furthermore the box at the side should be changed, it makes the lockout sound like an armed uprising, and this was not the case. Reactions of other social and political groups of historical importance should also be included, including (but not necessarily limited to) the Home Rule Party, the Republican movement (Sinn Fein, IRB etc), Socialist and workers' movements abroad and the middle- and upper-classes. Finally, some more details of the results, both long- and short-term would be nice. As well as the aforementioned reactions to the events perhaps some information on the long-lasting effects of the lockout on the working class movement in Ireland, the future activity of the ICA etc.
All in all, I feel this article needs some heavy editing. I'm currently studying for the Leaving Cert so I don't have the time at the moment, but if the article is still unchanged by the end of examinations I'll try update it a tad.--Redstar1916 23:48, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm removing the Protestant Ascendancy bit as most Dublin employers were Catholic. This was Dublin, not Belfast. In fact Bewleys and Guinness's, that were run by Proestants, did not lock out their workers. Also adding the 1911 strike in England as that was the model to follow at the time.Red Hurley (talk) 14:15, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
