War Speech on French Aggression and British Neutrality
A parliamentary debate reproduces Pitt and others denouncing French decrees and the August revolution as the pretext for war. They defend Britain’s neutral conduct, condemn embargoes and blockades, and argue peace is preferable if security is maintained, urging decisive action to counter France’s interference in Europe.
