Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Speeches of the Right Honourable Edmund Burke, Vol. 2 of 4: In the House of Commons, and in Westminster-Hall This day Mr. Burke opened the outlines of his celebrated Plan of Economical Reform, and gave notice that he would bring forward the business as soon after the Christmas holidays as possible. Upon this occasion, Mr. Burke, after some observations upon the means which he conceived were used to prevent him from engaging the attention of the House to this interesting subject, said: - A general sense prevails of the profusion with which all our affairs are carried on, and with it a general wish for some sort of reformation. That desire for reformation operates every where, except where it ought to operate most strongly - in this House. The proposition which has been lately made by a truly noble duke, and those propositions which are this very day making, in the other House, by a noble lord of great talents, industry, and eloquence, are, in my opinion, a reproach to us. To us, who claim the exclusive management of the public purse, all interference of the Lords, in our peculiar province, is a reproach.
