Home Government Association becomes the Home Rule League

The Home Government Association reconstituted as the Home Rule League in Dublin in November 1873, transforming from a pressure group to a political party.

The loose association reconstituted itself as a full political party, the Home Rule League, during meetings in November 1873. Isaac Butt, who founded the original association, regarded the new body as a pressure group rather than a political party, despite its formal party status.
