Milgrave Denounces Navy Critics and Defends Palliser
Ford Milgrave angrily refuted claims that officers had been driven from service and praised the present British Navy leadership. Lords North Howe and others defended Palliser, while debates over court proceedings and malice continued. Parliament examined naval expenditures, with Luttrell proposing to restrict funds to specified uses and Mulgrave detailing naval growth and new ships. The discussion shifted to Poyning’s Law repeal and Dublin actions after the recess, urging broader county participation.
