House of Lords Debate on Militia and Seamen Bills
On Friday June 25 the Lords met after adjournment and first read two bills, one doubling the militia and the other suspending exemptions for seamen and river workers. The Marquis of Rockingham, pledging true Whiggism and constitutional fidelity, argued that sovereign happiness hinges on mutual interests. He traced a shift from Whig principles to a newer system favoring powerful classes, urging that loyalty and fear of losing power shaped political change, and condemned the militia measure as hasty and ill digested while opposing the freedom bill as detrimental.
