Parnell Expelled: A Pivotal Moment in Irish History This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in Irish history, as Charles Stewart Parnell, the charismatic leader of the Irish National League, is expelled from the House of Commons and arrested under the Coercion Act of 1881. Surrounded by his supporters, including Tim Healy Dillon and T.P. O'Connor, Parnell contemplates their next move in the lobby of the House of Commons, London, in February 1881. The Coercion Act, passed in response to the Land War in Ireland, granted the British government the power to arrest and deport Irish nationalist leaders and suspend the Habeas Corpus Act, effectively suspending the civil liberties of the Irish people. Parnell's expulsion and arrest were seen as a blatant attempt to suppress Irish nationalist movements and quell the unrest in Ireland. Despite the setback, Parnell and his supporters remained defiant. They continued to organize protests and rallies, and Parnell's expulsion only served to galvanize support for the Irish nationalist cause. The event marked a turning point in Irish history, as it brought the plight of the Irish people to the international stage and paved the way for the eventual establishment of the Irish Free State. This historical photograph, taken from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into a significant moment in Irish history, capturing the determination and resilience of Parnell and his supporters in the face of British oppression.
