Set against the backdrop of industrial unrest in 1842 Britain, the narrative focuses on Halifax, a town deeply involved in the widespread strike that swept across England. The community's strong opposition to the New Poor Law and advocacy for a ten-hour working day highlight their commitment to workers' rights. Notably, the character 'Fat Peter' Bussey, a publican from Bradford, played a significant role in the Chartist movement by bringing a petition with thousands of signatures from Halifax to the first Chartist Convention, emphasizing the town's activism and solidarity.
