about
Orator Hunt was the main speaker at a mass rally held in Manchester in 1819, demanding political reform and trade union recognition. The crowd was attacked by the militia, under orders from a reactionary government to crush any protests. Hundreds were killed or seriously injured, either directly from sword wounds or from being trampled in the ensuing panic. The Peterloo massacre, as it became known, is one of the most significant events in the history of the British labour movement, inspiring Shelley’s famous poem, ‘The Mask of Anarchy’. But, scandalously, there is little in the form of public commemoration. Hunt’s message, that we must fight for political and trade union rights by coming together in the spirit of working-class radicalism, is as important today as it was then.
