Fate of Danny's relief plan in 1834 Poor Bill debate
The public faced confusion over Mr Danny's proposal to ease relief for able-bodied laborers and widows married before the Poor Bill of 1834. The hon. gentleman would have let Lord Joan Russe shift relief to the workhouse, a plan readers found unpalatable. After parliamentary yeas and nays, options reverted to the premotion state, with relief deemed proper by one vote but its application rejected by another.
