Having ended the 200 year neglect and white-washing of the memory of Peterloo, we now need to ensure that future generations remember and appreciate the contribution of Peterloo and England's radical heritage to the development of modern-day democracy.
With the creation of a free-to-download schools' edition Peterloo Graphic novel - created in collaboration with the Age of Revolution project - there's no excuse for leaving this pivotal chapter of English history out of the nation curriculum.
