Anti-Gallican Association Warns Britons on French Trade
The Halifax Gazettes notes a grand meeting of the Anti Gallican Association at Haberdashers Hall led by Admiral Vernon praising English liberty and urging promotion of domestic manufactures. It argues Britain must curb French imports and cites trade data from 1675 and 1714 showing Britain’s dependence on French goods and calls for vigilance against French sugars and luxury goods.
