It states the King is a constitutional sovereign and would not ally with Irish Nationalists or other reformers. It notes no official promise to swamp the Lords was ever given and questions the colonial audience's acceptance of his claims.

He contrasted with the Victorian Chief Justice’s refusal of a similar payment and demanded fixed, unalterable salaries for the judiciary.
