What reading level is The Local Veto Plot book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As a preparation for this a canvass had been made of the parliamentary candidates, and it was expected that 293 of the newly-elected Members would support the Harcourt Bill, which was introduced to the new Parliament without delay. According to its provisions, if at any time one-tenth of the local electors addressed a requisition in writing to the local authorities, they might cause a poll to be taken, either on the question of Sunday closing or on that of pro- hibition. By the terms of the Bil...l, two-thirds of the votes recorded were sufficient to carry a resolution for total prohibition, and a bare majority was to carry a resolution for Sunday closing. The Bill, however, did not pass. Among other non-successful measures of this nature were Sir W. Harcourt 's second Local Control (Veto) Bill, which was introduced in 1895, and the Sunday Closing (England) Bill of 1897, the Liquor Traffic Local Control (Scotland) Bill of 1907, and the Licensing Bill of 1908, which contained a Local Veto proposal.
