The Peterloo Massacre of 1819, where cavalry charged into a peaceful demonstration for political reform in Manchester, resulted in significant consequences. It led to heightened public awareness of the need for political representation and reform in Britain, ultimately sparking movements for change. The event also prompted the government to impose stricter laws on public assembly, but it galvanized reformers, contributing to the eventual expansion of suffrage and the representation of the working class in the political process.
