London demonstrations in favour of France and defence of Paris
A crowded St James Hall meeting urged government recognition of the French Republic and an armistice with France. The Hyde Park rally echoed the call for immediate recognition, denouncing territorial gains while praising the French Republic and condemning war. Odger and Trant faced mob hostility returning to England. Favre’s reply stressed peace and dignity.
