Excerpt from A Complete History of England
The earl of Mulgrave again distinguished himself by his elocution, in a speech that was held in great veneration by the people; and among those who entered a protest in the journals of the house, when the majority reflected the bill, was prince George of Denmark, duke of Cumberland. The court had not recollected themselves from the consternation produced from such a vigorous opposition, when the earl of Shrewsbury produced another bill for triennial parliaments, provided that there should be annual session; that if, at the expiration of the three years, the crown should not order the writs to be issued, the lord chancellor, or keeper, or commissioner of the great seal, should issue them ex officio, and by authority of this act, under severe penalties. The immediate object of this bill was the dissolution of the present parliament, which had already sat three sessions, and began to be formidable to the people, from its concessions to the ministry. The benefits that would accrue to the constitution from the establishment of triennial parliaments were very well understood, as these points had been frequently discussed in former reigns. The courtiers now objected, that frequent elections would render the freeholders proud and insolent, encourage faction among electors, and intail a continual expence upon the member, as he would find himself obligated, during the whole time of his fitting, to behave like a candidate, conscious how soon the time of election would revolve. In spite of the ministerial interest on the upper house, the bill passed, and contained a proviso, that present parliament should not continue any longer that the month of January next ensuing.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book carries you through the years 1690 to 1699, a period which saw England transitioning from reigning monarch James II fleeing to France, to William and Mary being crowned the new joint sovereigns of England. Enhanced with context from the events in parallel-running wars between France and other European countries, this book delves into the significance of The Declaration of Right's and The Toleration Act. It dissects the Jacobite uprising in a post-Glorious Revolution England, presenting an analysis of the deep divisions within the country at the time. The author takes special care to showcase the balancing act of allegiances, the evolution of political parties, and the great religious shifts that defined the era. Laying bare the importance of those years, the author concludes that, without this tumultuous decade, British constitutional law as we know it would be very different today. This meticulously researched work of history sheds light on pivotal events that continue to shape not only British national identity, but also the evolution of Western powers.
