A Letter on Borough Reform and Parliamentary Rights
The writer argues against corrupt borough control and the sale of parliamentary influence. He condemns John Jollyffe for packing seats and urges public information about city and borough constitutions. He calls for reforms, cites Lord Chatham, and tests Voltaire’s canon law critique of clerical wealth and rights within a civil framework.
