Terminological imprecision - 'thrown out'
In the section on his parliamentary career it is stated he was "thrown out of his seat" at Marlborough in 1829, and that he was "thrown out again" at Fowey in 1832. More precise terminology should be used. While it is clear that the Fowey seat had been abolished under the 1832 Reform Act, the picture is less clear (from the article on the constituency) as to what procedurally happened over Marlborough - was he what is now called 'deselected' at constituency level or had he lost an election?Cloptonson (talk) 19:22, 9 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I have read in his article in the History of Parliament volume 1820-1832, that he was forced to leave Marlborough by his patron kinsman who brought William John Bankes to occupy the future Lord Cardigan's place. It looks like a resignation forced on him by family pressure. The termination date is given as 14 March 1829.Cloptonson (talk) 21:06, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
