Quote by John Bright
The Government and the Parliament, even the House of Lords, will consent to a large increase of electors and men who have not considered the subject fully will imagine they have gained much by the concession.
Summary
This quote suggests that the government and parliament might agree to expand the number of eligible voters, and even the House of Lords might consent to this change. However, it implies that people who haven't thoroughly examined the matter may mistakenly believe that they have achieved a significant victory through this concession. It highlights a cautionary tone, warning against assuming that any increase in electors automatically equates to substantial progress or true democratization.
