Lord North stands in the basket behind, in place of a footman, watching with anger the proceedings on the box. The front left wheel is broken after going over the "Loan" rock; a larger "Reform Bill" boulder is ahead of the horses and The text below image is a paraphrase of the Duke of Chandos's speech criticizing North's coalition with Fox: "Such was the love of Office of the noble Lord, that finding he would not be permitted to mount the Box, | He had been content to get up behind, vide the Duke of C------. . . s's Speech Morning Chronicle 15th April". This was a speech by Chandos on the Irish Judicature Bill, 14 April, violently attacking the Coalition: "he particularly arraigned the conduct of Lord North, and said that not being able to get again upon the state coach-box, he had been content to get up behind."
