who got the blame for the great fire of london?
english
an example of the urge to identify scapegoats for the fire is the acceptance of the confession of a simple-minded french watchmaker named robert hubert, who claimed that he was an agent of the pope and had started the great fire in westminster. he later changed his story to say that he had started the fire at the bakery in pudding lane. hubert was convicted, despite some misgivings about his fitness to plead, and hanged at tyburn on 28 september 1666. after his death, it became apparent that he had been on board a ship in the north sea, and had not arrived in london until two days after the fire started. these allegations that catholics had started the fire were exploited as powerful political propaganda by opponents of pro-catholic charles ii's court, mostly during the popish plot and the exclusion crisis later in his reign.
