Roebucks motion and poor law debate in parliament
The adjourned debate on Mr. Roebucks motion regarding the recent Compromises resumed on Monday with Roebucks forceful argument pushing for tighter measures against bribery in constituencies and for a conduct inquiry on Members. Lord Palmerston opposed, but Roebucks reply shamed both sides into unanimity. The Poor Law Renewal Bill, led by Sir James Graham, mirrors last year with central authority and nine assistant commissioners to be kept, Gilbert Unions abolished, and minor bastardy clause changes. The Times attacks the measure as no benefit to workers, while radicals and Tories prepare for continued clash on reform.
