Lords Speak On Finances And Navy Affairs In Parliament
Lord North seeks time to examine the bill’s parts before choosing a side while Mr Fox presses for a prompt reading. Hartley attacks the estimates as funds under false pretenses and calls for a credit vote rather than a direct grant to the navy. The debate touches on economy, petitioned restraint, and treatment of naval officers including Palliser and Palliser’s post trial conduct.
