"\"Just as Wilberforce is the outstanding example of the British Evangelical movement as a reforming force in the international field, so Lord Ashley (from 1851 to seventh Earl of Shaftesbury) is the master figure illustrating the power and the limitations of Evangelicalism in the field of Social reform at home. Apart from his well-known campaigns for factory legislation, he agitated in and out of Parliament for the protection of colliery workers and chimney sweeps for the reform of the lunacy laws, for the promotion of ragged schools, and for the reclamations of juvenile offenders. In addition he strove to arouse public interest in the housing problem and was vice-president of the R.S.P.C.A. Yet Shaftesbury held aloof from the Christian Socialist movement, distrusted popular agitations, was hostile to trade unionism and remained a Tory to the end of his life in 1885.
