Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a speech delivered by the author, a Member of Parliament, against the proposal to increase the civil list revenue of King George II. The speech argues that the proposed increase exceeded the revenue granted to the late King George I and is unnecessary given the Crown's existing resources. The author asserts that the late King's civil list was sufficient to support the monarchy and that the proposed increase would constitute an excessive burden on the people. He also criticizes the financial management of the late government, alleging a lack of accountability and excessive spending. The speech concludes by urging the House of Commons to limit the civil list increase to the level granted to King George I, emphasizing the need for fiscal prudence and respect for the people's welfare. This book offers a valuable historical perspective on debates over royal finances and the role of Parliament in ensuring responsible government spending.
