Mr Duncombe and the Post Office Debate
The piece praises Mr Duncombe's fiery Tuesday speech on the Post Office Committee report while criticizing the idea of open inquiry. It defends Parliamentary oversight yet urges strict checks on letters seized via warrants, arguing against universal inviolability and for annual ministerial accountability. It cites past warrants under Whig and late-1830s administrations and defends Sir James Graham amid disputes over Mazini and foreign affairs.
