The Game Laws Debate and Slave Trade Controversy
The Lords debate amendments to the Game Laws and consider delaying the measure to protect corn.

In Commons, petitions on Wet Docks at Wapping are read, inclosure bills pass, and Wilberforce pushes a sixteenth of the slave trade bill debate with strong Merchant and Planter opposition.
