The poll taxes levied during the Peasants' Revolt in 1381 were intended to fund the Hundred Years' War between England and France. These taxes were particularly burdensome on the poor peasants who were already struggling with economic hardship.

It seemed as if the revolt had been a total failure. But over the next century, the peasants received most of what they had asked for in 1381. First, Parliament gave up trying to hold down the wages. Then, more and more villeins became free from their lords. Week-work and similar duties were gradually given up. Peasants were soon able to rent land and work for payment. Life did improve... but sometimes you have to make a move and suffer, rather than wait a lifetime for someone else to do it. And that's just what the peasants did.

(It was 1381, not 1831.)
After the Black Death of 1348-9, the population had been much reduced, and labour was more scarce. Labourers felt they could exploit this, by demanding higher wages. Landowners tried to resist the demands, and they were often the same people who collected unpopular taxes, usually to finance the endless wars in France. Events came to a head in 1381, although 'Peasants' Revolt' is not really accurate. Most of the leaders were townsmen, and relatively affluent.
The result was to bring an end to the serf system (effectively slavery). Labour became more mobile, wages were raised, and the tax-collectors were told to moderate their demands.
