MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History February 27, 1812: Poet Lord Byron gave his first address as a member of the House of Lords. In his speech, he spoke out in support of Luddite violence against industrialism in his home county of Nottinghamshire. He spoke specifically against the Frame Breaking Act, which gave the death penalty to anyone guilty of breaking a machine. The state hanged 60-70 Luddites during the time the law was on the books. However, most of the time, the courts used other laws to convict them.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/deathpenalty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>deathpenalty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hanging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hanging</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/luddites" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>luddites</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lordbyron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lordbyron</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poet</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poetry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poetry</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/industrialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>industrialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technology</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstadon</span></a></span></p>
