An online meeting.
In an event unique in British history, Winston Churchill dispatched English troops and tanks against a large demonstration in George Square on 31 January 1919. The event became known as the Battle of George Square. The lead up to it and the battle gave Glasgow its unearned (?) title of Red Clydeside.
