Best Answer

Apex = Government reforms

What they wanted was called the PEOPLE'S CHARTER it included.

1. A vote for every man twenty-one years of age, of sound mind and not undergoing punishment for crime.

2. A secret ballot, to protect to elector in the exercise of his vote

3. No property qualification, for the members of parliament, so the constituencies (towns/ boroughs etc) could choose a man however rich

4. Payment of members, so an honest man would get paid for his work, as opposed to no pay

5. Equal constituencies, having the same amount of electors instead of the small constituencies having many people.

6. Annual parliament, holding an election every year

Only four of theses things came true (not the annual parliament one)

But at first Parliament declined it, but eventually over a time period of 75 years, it happened. And now even more happened (ie women over 18, men over 18 allowed to vote)

The great reformation to the working class citizen wasnt great.
