Debate on Catholic exclusion and rights to office in Parliament

A long parliamentary debate traces the history of penal laws and exclusion of Roman Catholics from office. Key figures cited include King William III, Lord Somers, and others arguing toleration vs exclusion, containment of penalties, and the Test and Corporation Acts as safeguards for Protestant supremacy. The speaker argues for reexamining rights to office within constitutional bounds while preserving toleration distinctions.
