Excerpt from A Short History of the House of Commons: With Reference to Reform
The pe0p1e have a right to be well governed, and to be governed as cheaply as possible, consistently with good government. These are the inherent, inalienable rights of man; and when deprived of them by force or fraud, he is justified in seeking to recover them by all the means in his power, that are not productive of greater evils than those he intends to remedy.
