The Impeachment of the House of Brunswick

"The Impeachment of the House of Brunswick" by Charles Bradlaugh is a sharp critique of the British royal family, particularly the House of Brunswick, where Bradlaugh makes the case for their ousting from power because of failures and choices that hurt the British people. In his argument, presented through speeches and public evidence, Bradlaugh stresses the people's legal power to rethink who should be in charge. He starts by thanking his supporters in the United States and sharing his goal to broaden the discussion to reach more people, making it clear that his writing isn't a push for a republic, but a serious look at whether the royals are fit to rule. Using historical laws and examining the behavior of kings from George I to III, Bradlaugh begins a detailed discussion on the effects of the royal family’s leadership, highlighting worries about corruption, national debt, and overall governance that he plans to look at more closely later on.
