Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Round Table, Vol. 4: A Quarterly Review of the Politics of the British Empire; December 1913 to September 1914 There is a widespread belief among the British people that inconvenient circles can, if necessary, be squared. It was never more prevalent than it is to-day. Ireland, divided into two unequal halves, has once more taken possession of the whole political scene; and if the rest of the United Kingdom could be polled upon the Irish Question, a large majority of the electors would probably be found to desire that both halves of Ireland should be given what they demand. For every political cause is now compelled to wait until the Irish drama is played out. Even the Land question, which is to act a great part before long, secures no attention as yet; and the undoubted interest in it which is latent all over the country will not be able to assert itself in any serious way until the menace of civil war in North-East Ireland is definitely removed. Ireland is taking all the limelight, and the audience is at last beginning to feel the seriousness of the play. One section of it has hitherto been largely apathetic, the other inclined to treat the piece as comedy; but both the apathy and the amusement have turned at last into very real anxiety, and there is now a general desire to interpose, lest the denouement should prove to be a tragedy after all. So much was manifest in the long awaited speech delivered by the Prime Minister at Ladybank on October 25.
