The Chartist Commemoration is not a service nor
is it a religious event. Every year people gather
to lay flowers, just as the family, friends and
supporters of ten Chartists buried in the church
yard did (secretly) in the years following the
abortive Rising of 1839, when 22 men were killed
at the Westgate Inn on November 4th. It is a
secular event started in 1986 by members of the
Newport Historical Society (notably Richard Frame
and David Osmond) as there was no public
recognition of the buried Chartists. Paul Flynn
set up the George Shell Society to promote this
event as an annual event and by 1988 a stone
memorial was placed in the churchyard, unveiled
by the novelist, Alexander Cordell. Due to
popular will, the commemoration has continued
every year for half an hour usually starting at
6pm (as it will this year) through wind and rain
for 30 years, sometimes down to half a dozen
stalwarts, but happily since 2007 attended by
large numbers - it's open to everyone. For very
many years, the Cathedral Dean has attended and
welcomed everybody and for more than a decade the
Mayor has joined the gathering and the event has
entered the 'civic' calendar. It is good to see
that a number of councillors from all parties
attend. It a moment when people from all
democratic parties and from none, put aside
political differences and remember that our
liberties and freedoms were gained by the
sacrifices of previous generations and that their
retention depends upon eternal vigilance.
We will be there again this year at 6pm. I would
also like to join the march to Westgate Square, a
contrasting, yet tandem event that started a few
years ago in the same 'ad hoc' way that the
Churchyard commemoration got going 30 years ago.
It is growing in popularity, reflects the younger
generation who are driving it, its lively! Sadly
if it doesn't start 6.30 like last year, I'll
have to miss it - the University has organised a
FREE lecture at the City riverside campus 7.30 on
the Chartist legacy in Australia - and Professor
Paul Pickering has come all the way from Sydney.
If anyone fancies a dance after the march

Chartist Day March
Community
An annual Peoples' march to commemorate the
Chartist uprising at Newport on November 4th 1839
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish
participation in Bormann companies that when
Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the
Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires.
Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities
in no uncertain terms that this must never happen
again because a repetition would permanently
rupture relations with the Germans of Latin
America, as well as with the Bormann
organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish
money to Israel. It never happened again, and the
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an
Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most
efficient German infrastructure in history as
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.
