| | History: James Connolly voted onto 100 "Greatest" people |
 | | Connolly longed to be directly involved in the Irish labour movement and was able eventually to return to Ireland in 1910. |  | | Connolly can be included in the survey because the BBC decided that, "nominations included anyone who was born in the British Isles, including Ireland; or anyone who lived in the British Isles, including Ireland, and who has played a significant part in the life of the British Isles." |  | | But Connolly's hopes of his sacrifice acting as a trigger across Europe were not totally misplaced. |

| | James Connolly & Irish Freedom |
 | | Connolly and his friends were of the opinion that now the time had come for the revolutionaries to act and to proceed from the defensive to the offensive. |  | | Connolly held this position until 1914, when Larkin went to the United States on a speaking tour and remained there involuntarily for over eight years. |  | | When Connolly took charge of the union, one of his first acts was to establish a printing plant for turning out illegal literature in Liberty Hall, the union headquarters. |

| | James Connolly: Irish rebel and feminist firebrand |
 | | James Connolly was born in 1868 to Irish immigrant parents in Edinburgh, Scotland. |  | | This shines through in the "1916 Proclamation," which declared a guarantee of equal rights for both Irish men and women as one of the aims of the Rising. |  | | In those days, the issue of votes for women, like abortion today, was too hot for some to handle. |

| | The ideas of James Connolly - National Anti-Capitalism - Indymedia Ireland |
 | | Whereas Connolly argued that the Industrial Union must usher in socialism, and the role of the party was to support the union. |  | | Connolly dismissed the idea that socialism could be ushered in by seizing State control. |  | | Although racial liberation movements are rarely racist and sexual liberation movements are rarely sexist, unfortunately, most national liberation movements are nationalist, and as they campaign against oppression of one kind they advocate that of another, namely the oppression of the nation-state. |

 | | When Larkin left on a fundraising tour of the United States in 1914, where he was destined to be arrested and sentenced to ten years in prison for his political activities, Connolly became acting general secretary of the ITGWU. |  | | Connolly assembled his men outside their union headquarters, known as Liberty Hall. |  | | As if to emphasize his status as a revolutionary theoretician, Connolly was also an early champion of women's rights. |

 | | At this point, Connolly was convinced that the Irish working class alone was capable of continuing the revolutionary republican tradition and of uniting the principles of republicanism and socialism. |  | | It is true that Connolly had his political baptism in the British socialist movement, being a member of the SDF and Scottish Socialist Federation (SSF) prior to his arrival in Ireland. |  | | Members of the Supreme Council of the IRB, the radical republican movement from Fenian days, were not averse to an alliance with Connolly and the labour movement. |

 | | All Connolly's warnings about the treacherous role of the bourgeoisie were confirmed by the terrible events surrounding partition. |  | | When the Liberal government in London contemplated using the British army in Ireland, they were met with the "mutiny at the Curragh". |  | | This affected not only Dublin but also Belfast, where Connolly succeeded in uniting Catholic and Protestant workers in struggle against the employers. |

 | | Although long a private atheist, Connolly had also long decided to adopt the “Catholic pose,” as he put it himself. |  | | It had been the practice of Mullen to reveal to a select few (after first swearing them to keep quiet about it) an original ITGWU document showing that in the immediate aftermath of the Easter Rising, Connolly had in fact been expelled by the union, of which he was acting general secretary. |  | | But why was it necessary to study the original sources in America, when the former ITGWU general secretary William O’Brien had assembled his own set of originals in Ireland? |

 | | This dual communist-nationalist doctrine was heavily influenced by the thinking of James Connolly who similarly believed in socialism and independence for Ireland and had set up his Irish Socialist Republican Party in 1896. |  | | MacLean argued that the break-up of the British state and empire would aid the cause of world-wide socialism and thus he supported the idea of an independent Scotland. |  | | They advocated the political doctrine of communism, whilst also supporting Scottish independence. |

 | | Following the surrender he was executed by the British for his role, although he was so badly injured in the fighting that he was unable to stand for his execution, and was therefore shot in a chair. |  | | This alarmed the members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, who had already infiltrated the Volunteers and had plans to use them for an insurrection that very year. |  | | Connolly was among the few left-wingers of the Second International who opposed, outright, the Great War. |

 | | Unionists applauded the government’s imposition of martial law in Ireland during Easter week and urged that nationalists’ sedition should not be ‘rewarded’ by British concessions. |  | | The Rising was generally regarded by unionists as an act of treachery and proof that Irish nationalists were at heart disloyal. |  | | It was in Edinburgh, where he was born, that he had first absorbed his firm commitment to Irish independence and his revolutionary socialism. |
