It's interesting reading the comments here, most of which are of the kind, "well, it doesn't count because it was X or Y, or because this was already normal somewhere else in the world." And then a bunch of other comments which say, "well, if you include A and B then...yeah, it did."
I mean, sure...Britain either did or didn't ever have a revolutionary moment, depending on how you change the definition and requirements of 'revolutionary'.
In those terms, the conversation so far feels more like "Do I think Britain ever had a revolutionary moment?"
- pjc50 5y agoWell, yes, it's not an especially well defined term, and it's interesting to explore the boundaries of what does and does not count.
