Cobden speaks to Hertford farmers on Corn Laws impact
A Hertfordshire meeting drew farmers from distance as Cobden argued that price supports fail because prices depend on buyers, not Parliament. He showed Wheat at 44 shillings, predicting a 35–40 shilling harvest, urging landlords to adopt sliding scales. The scene contrasted with anti Cobden protectionists, while Cobden's success in the county is noted as a rare political reversal.
