Summary

Description
English: George Lansbury on Poplar rates rebellion mural George Lansbury is shown here heading the march that took place on 29 July 1921 when the councillors and 2,000 supporters, marched five miles to the High Court, whither they had been summonsed, with a banner stating "Poplar Borough Council, Marching to the High Court and Possibly to Prison, To Secure The Equalisation of Rates For Poor Boroughs".

George Lansbury, a local MP both before and after this event, had already been in prison (and on hunger strike) in 1912 for supporting suffragist activities.
