How did the reform act of 1832 change parliament?

-Redistributed seats in the House of Commons

-More suffrage for working class men

-Less property qualifications required for voting

1. It extended suffrage to the middle classes who had been rising in wealth and power since the start of the Industrial Revolution
2. The act also aimed to re-evaluate constituent areas, new fast growing cities like Manchester and Liverpool
3. The act can be seen as a way of accepting the middle class into the political arena before the middle and working classes could unite and pose a serious threat to the upper classes in charge of parliament.

This is what I know! Hope this helps :)
