:47:00
Mr Pitt's consoling pleasantries
should not deceive the House.
:47:05
The king is incapacitated.
:47:08
There are those who say
he has lost his reason.
:47:12
It isn't so!
:47:13
- Nonsense!
- In which case,
:47:15
I propose a bill be drawn up
:47:17
to make the Prince
of Wales... regent.
:47:22
Order!
:47:23
Order!
:47:25
The motion before this House
:47:27
is that a bill
be speedily drawn up
:47:30
to appoint the Prince of Wales
:47:32
regent of this kingdom!
:47:35
The house will divide.
:47:36
Thank you, gentlemen,
for your support.
:47:39
Sir, I must vote.
:47:40
For the life of me, I can't see
why they need to vote.
:47:44
The king is incapable.
It's known.
:47:46
These are the nation's
representatives.
:47:48
Some come to Parliament
in the hope
:47:50
that they might serve
their country.
:47:52
But most of them, being human,
:47:54
are here to fill their pockets.
:47:57
Pitt and your father
have done them very well...
:48:00
pensions, places...
:48:02
bribes.
:48:03
Once it is plain
that Pitt is finished
:48:07
and there is no more swill
in the trough,
:48:10
Your Royal Highness
will be made regent.
:48:17
Sir, I must join the line.
:48:23
Gascoigne.
:48:25
Sheridan.
:48:26
Fox.
:48:33
353.
:48:34
323.
:48:38
Very good. A majority of 30.
:48:44
Rather good.
A government majority of 30.
:48:47
Government? 30?
:48:49
You mean we haven't won?
:48:50
Well, we didn't expect
to win outright,
:48:53
not the first vote.
:48:54
I thought they liked me.
:48:56
They will, sir, they will,
in time.
