Battle of George Square[edit]

In this edit you changed

"Accounts differ on what initiated the violence on the day, but police testimony at the following trials records that the police baton charged the striking workers at 12:20."

to

"The failure of the tram workers to join the strike, and paralysed the city, had been a source of growing tension in the preceding days. Some of the strikers tried to stop the tram traffic in the Square. Attempts by the police led to a series of baton charges and growing violence."

That last sentence looks quite incomplete

"Attempts by the police led to a series of baton charges and growing violence."

Now that I look again, the first sentence looks very odd, too. Can you remember your intentions and fix this paragraph? Shenme (talk) 02:03, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing these issues out. I have re-edited.
