J.B. to or on Peel Collectanea.
Morn. Chron. May 4, 1827.
House of Commons, May 3d.
The New Ministry.
Mr. Peel – What is to be done with the question
of Parliamentary Reform? Is it to be brought forward
in any specific form, and supported by the new friends
of the Government; or is it to be postponed until all
those shades of opinion can be blended of which I have
this evening heard for the first time? If these opinions
be not countenanced by the new Government,
on what principles then I ask again, is the question
of Parliamentary Reform to be discussed? Is it to be
left as the Catholic question is? ... These questions
must produce the elements of discord in the new
Administration, unless, indeed, I am to gather from what
the Honourable and Learned Gentleman has said, that
Parliamentary Reform is also to be made an open
question, though truly he was not very explicit in his
statements. ... Why do they not say that they will
forget the Catholic Question and Parliamentary Reform –
that they find the prerogative of the Crown in danger,
and they have rushed forward to defend it?
