lnstead of uniting the good people
of this nation...
:45:08
...with righteousness and peace...
:45:11
...which would have been a glorious
and Christian thing to have done...
:45:16
...what do l find?
:45:21
Anarchy, corruption...
:45:25
...division and dissatisfaction.
:45:33
l say that the enemies of this nation...
:45:36
...have flourished
under your protection.
:45:41
You were from the beginning
a provisional government...
:45:44
...not truly representative
of the people.
:45:47
For have the people elected you?
:45:50
Has this House gone once
to the people it purports to represent?
:45:54
No, it has not! And after six years
of misgovernment, what do we find?
:46:00
Sir Thomas Fairfax moves a bill
to give this House a further lease...
:46:05
...of its worthless
and dishonourable life!
:46:09
Gentlemen, an immovable Parliament
is more obnoxious...
:46:14
...than an immovable king!
:46:19
You are drunkards, tricksters,
villains, whoremasters...
:46:25
...godless, self-seeking,
ambitious tricksters.
:46:29
You are no more capable of conducting
the nation"s affairs...
:46:32
...than you are of running a brothel!
:46:35
You are scum, sir.
And not truly elected scum at that.
:46:40
This is no Parliament.
l shall put an end to it.
:46:43
l hereby declare this Parliament
dissolved!
:46:46
-Colonel Harrison!
-Yes, sir. Troops forward!
:46:50
Rubbish.
