About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Speaker, Vol. 4: September 5, 1891

House put out by the Radicals who had seats in the House of Commons in the Parliament of 1868.

It is unwise, I am convinced, to reject Parlia mentary reform on account of the quarter from which it proceeds, and the Liberal party have always reason to expect gain in the long run from a frank support of reform principles.

The questions of the choice of leaders and of fresh Parliamentary reform are complicated by that of Labour Representation. It is, however, idle to talk about a Labour Party so long as it costs on the average to get a member in, and £500 a year to keep him in, and while both sums have to be found elsewhere than from public sources. When members come to be paid by the public, and such election costs also paid by the public as are allowed at all, then Labour Members will be able to stand without recourse to local party subscriptions or general party funds. Till then it is only the miners, and perhaps a very few others of the best and most solid labour organisations, who can hope to return and keep their men. Charles W. Dilke.
