Excerpt from Direct Action and the Constitution
The necessity of our day is not so much extra constitutional action as some drastic action in defence of the constitution, with which Mr. Lloyd George in his period Of power has so seriously tampered. He has aimed more blows at the British constitution than any recent British statesman. He has displayed a contempt for the House of Commons which none but a servile House of coupon holders would tolerate.
