Dispensing power
Inessentialia?

Setting aside Under the most imperious Minister – in the most
circumstances the most favourable for ministerial influence
the obsequiousness of the most indolent uninquisitive and careless
Parliament has its bounds. Under a Parliament The power influence of
the Minister – I mean no more than that which arises because the opinion of the wisdom of
the Minister will indeed go a great way as it is natural
and desirable that it should go in the choice of
measures. But in the eyes of Parliament, even
of a Parliament so circumstanced, the same measure
can not be an admirable one one day – and without
any change of circumstances an ineligible the
next. Under a Parliament there may be – and
while so long wisdom remains imperfect must be occasional impolicy
but the impolicy can not be take the
shape of sudden versatility and caprice. Parliament
will never be brought to change its own measures
to blow hot and cold as upon the same
measure as an individual a Minister may do as Ministers
have done and will always be apt to do at the
sollicitation of that A and B with whom they
may have to live. But if should the authority of Parliament
be laid upon the shelf, should the intercourse all application
on the
between part of the Minister to Parliament come to
be regarded as unnecessary – and should the Minister
after his measures have been adopted by Parliament
be allowed to consider himself as much master of them
as before.
