Enclosure Act → Small farmers had to move to cities.
Combination Acts → Workers had to endure poor working conditions.
Poor Law → The unemployed moved into workhouses.

Brief why: Enclosures consolidated common land, displacing small farmers; the Combination Acts outlawed unions so workers couldn’t collectively protest bad conditions; the Poor Law (especially 1834) pushed relief through workhouses.
