Radicalism not dangerous
II. Experience
(3) II. Ireland
After Grattan's Speech
As to parliamentary reform, the effect of it had it
amounted to any thing would have been to the whole body of the possessors a general loss of
seats [to the possessors] This was seen by every body: this
was acknowledged by every body. Accordingly when the
time was thought to have come, offers were a general
system shew of oblation took was exhibited by the whole brotherhood.
That offers of this kind were made in
multitudes we have learn from the candour of Mr Hardy.
that very few, of these demonstrations of public spirit if any, probably none at all, were sincere,
we learn from that same candid pen is an
information for which we are indebted to that same
virtue.
Thus in Ireland then as in Britain now the
question is between the ruling few on the one part and the
subject many on the other part. That by any thing
but from fear of the harm that the subject many [it
was in the nature of the case that] the ruling few should
give up so much as an atom of power that they thought they could
hold was is no more in the nature of the case in the one
instance than it was in the other
