My Lords and Gentlemen,

I beg to introduce the following bill:

An Act to make the position and office of Speaker of Parliament elective.

WHEREAS The Parliament desires to maintain its own affairs as an independent branch of the government of the realm, in the spirit of true constitutional governance;

AND WHEREAS We recall the traditions and history of the Hanoverian nation in allowing the Parliament to select its own presiding officer;

BE IT THEREFORE ENACTED by the King's Most Excellent Majesty, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Lords Temporal and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the Authority of the same, as follows:

The following article shall be appended to the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Hanover as the Third Amendment thereunto:


"The words 'or a Speaker appointed by him' shall be repealed in Part IV (The Parliament), Section 22, and replaced with the words 'or a Speaker elected by Parliament.' "

My Lords and Gentlemen:

As Mr. von Kassel has subscribed to an act of open treason posted at the Ellicott Square forum, I ask the Speaker to bar the gentleman from the proceedings of His Majesty's Parliament.

I would further request of the Speaker that he bar the admission of, or eject from these premises, all the others who have signed the instrument of rebellion against the Crown, namely Wulfstan, Archbishop of Bergen, Alexander von Kassel, Christopher D. Livingston, and George Konigsmark.

Should the Speaker not deem it within his authority to eject these traitors from this hallowed place where Our Beloved Sovereign and his LOYAL subjects discuss and make laws for this Realm, I would ask that he and other loyal subjects join me in petitioning His Majesty to dissolve this Parliament in person, until after the traitors have departed as promised on the 18th of this month.

I would further ask that the Prime Minister advise His Majesty to quit the capital on the day of the ignominious departure of the rebel traitors, in favour of his other capital at Portreal, that he may in so doing both spare Himself the indignity of their disgraceful act, and underscore the unimportance of their departure.
