Description
English: "A Whig politician who won universal popularity for his charm and moderation, Petty-Fitzmaurice entered Parliament in 1802. His first office, aged twenty-five, was as Chancellor of the Exchequer in the coalition 'Ministry of All the Talents'. On nearly doubling property tax, he gained a reputation for high moral principles and sympathy with the oppressed. During the Whigs' long years in opposition, he championed various causes; anti-slavery, Catholic emancipation and law reform. In 1826–1828 he led a faction of 'Canningite' Tories and served as Home Secretary, resisting electoral reform. This portrait probably dates to 1805, when the Tory William Wilberforce was keen to let Petty-Fitzmaurice sponsor the abolition of the slave trade because he 'stands well with the house'." [1]
