Was the Jarrow crusade successful?
In the short run, no, because 200 fit and healthy men travelled 25 days all the way from jarrow (near Newcastle) all the way to London for the government only said "im too busy" and all they got was a train ride home. We know this because a source created 50 years later by Don Dixon (ex MP of Jarrow) `there is intolerably high enemployment`. Therefore, there is still no change after 50 years. However, it seems that the crusade was monumental to many people in Jarrow because they named a bus after it, made a statue and there was a cartoon published in 2000 about the crusade in comparison to lorry drivers' slow drive.
