Today marks the 200th Anniversary of the Peterloo Massacre. On 16 August 1819 the radical orator, Henry Hunt, who had deep family connections in Somerset, addressed a crowd of at least 60,000 people, demanding parliamentary reform. 11 people were killed and more than 400 injured when the meeting was broken up by the local yeomanry. ‘Peterloo’ became a symbol of government repression and a rallying cry for radical reformers.
