Outlook for Tuesday: Appeal to the People!: 4: What about the Workers?

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Written by Professor H.J. Hanham.
By the 1880s many workers had the vote but neither the Tories nor the Liberals were able to win full working-class support. A motley group of militant trade unionists and socialist intellectuals formed an unstable alliance to get the people directly represented in Parliament.
Introduced by Professor Esmond Wright.
