Speech on parliamentary independence and power in Britain
The text records a late 17th century debate on restraining Crown influence in Parliament. It argues against Bills limiting officers and warns such measures could threaten liberty, urging restoration of virtue and removal of bad counselors instead. It includes the Place Bill text naming restricted offices and the risk of creating arbitrary power.
