During World War 1, the British government used extensive propaganda to influence public support and action. Various methods were employed, including posters, newspapers, films, and recruiting events at football matches. The propaganda aimed to recruit soldiers, encourage women to work in factories or as nurses, promote food conservation, boost patriotism, and generate hatred of the enemy. Different approaches targeted Scottish men specifically, such as pipe bands and a mobile recruiting tram. The propaganda strove to achieve objectives crucial to Britain's war effort.
