Monopolists Defined in Cotton Twist’s 1841 Call
In a polemic from Cotton Twist, the author attacks monopolies across land, religion, education, and commerce upheld by Peel era policies. Monopolists are described as profiteers who lock bread, wages, and power behind legal and religious control, forcing famine and poverty to serve private gain. The piece condemns market manipulation, calls for citizen unity against oppression, and warns of social upheaval if reform is delayed. London date noted as October 14 1841.
