Could anyone come up with a plausible way to have a Revolution or an armed uprising of any kind in late 19th Century Britain? The last attempt was apparently the 1839 Chartist "Newport Uprising". There's also the possibility of a British 1848 if the Reform Act of 1832 was turned down, alongside an Irish 1848 if the Young Irelander plot succeeds.

But something in the 1860's maybe? What if a stronger Chartist movement or a remnant/reincarnation of it somehow lingers on into the latter half of the 19th Century and the Reform Act of 1864 is turned down? Could that be a possible scenario for a "British Revolution?"
