MICHAEL THOMAS SADLER

'Michael Thomas Sadler' (1780-1835) was a radical British Tory MP, opponent of Catholic emancipation and leader of the factory reform movement.
He opposed Malthus's population doctrine, arguing that fertility actually declines with rising income. He was famously attacked in the ''Edinburgh Review'' by Thomas Macauley. He is generally seen as one of the opponents of the Classical school in economics.
