Was the British government corrupt in the 1800s?
Yes, but it got better. For example, at the start of the 1800s, the electoral map hadn't been changed for centuries. This meant that the districts of the abandoned cities of Old Sarum, Dunwich and Winchelsea still were represented by 2 MPs each, while big cities like Manchester only had one or two MPs. The 1832 Great Reform Act replaced the old system of electing MPs with constituencies where the population was evenly distributed.
