William IV on the left, with a huge broom inscribed: Public Opinion, sweeps away his Ministers who rush to the right in ignominious haste. His broom is against Wellington’s posterior; the others from left to right are: Bathurst, Goulburn, Peel, Ellenborough, and Aberdeen. Behind them is a seventh who may be Londonderry. Wellington says: Oh Bob that it should have come to this, where shall we hide – -where can we go?- – curse Don-Key’s fee fa-fum. The King says: Now I shall have a clear House- – no more dictators! Out with you all 29 against your own question, Off – – off.
