Observations on a Minister’s missed chance at triennial Parliament
The London Evening Pest author argues a minister wasted a prime opportunity to gain popularity and stabilize power by restoring triennial Parliament, condemning his extension of excise laws and misreading public and party principles. The letter blames infatuation for the policy reversal and notes the lasting harm to both the government and the Country Party.
