Oxford, where he had See also:George See also:Canning; afterwards his See also:close See also:political See also:associate, for a contemporary. In 1790 he entered See also:parliament as member for See also:Appleby; he became See also:master of the See also:mint in 1799 and See also:foreign secretary in Addington's See also:administration in 1801, when he conducted the negotiations for the abortive treaty of See also:Amiens. On the See also:accession of See also:Pitt to See also:power in 1804, he obtained the See also:home See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office, having in the previous See also:year been elevated as See also:Baron Hawkesbury to the See also:House of Lords, where he acted as See also:leader of the See also:government. He declined the premiership on the See also:death of Pitt in 18o6, and remained out of office until See also:Portland became See also:prime See also:minister in 1807, when he again became secretary of See also:state for home affairs. In 18o8 he succeeded his See also:father as earl of Liverpool. In the See also:ministry of See also:Spencer See also:Perceval (1809—1812) he was secretary for See also:war and the colonies.

The political career of the 2nd See also:Lord Liverpool was of a negative See also:character so far as legislation was concerned; but he held office in years of See also:great danger and depression, during which he " kept See also:- ORDER

The See also:energy of Castlereagh and Canning secured the success of the foreign policy of his See also:cabinet, but in his home policy he was always See also:retrograde. The introduction of the See also:bill of pains and penalties against See also:Queen See also:Caroline greatly increased his unpopularity, originated by the severe See also:measures of repression employed to quell the See also:general See also:distress, which had been created by the excessive See also:taxation which followed the See also:Napoleonic See also:wars. Lord Liverpool was destitute of wide sympathies and of true political insight, and his resignation of office was followed almost immediately by the See also:complete and permanent reversal of his domestic policy. He was twice married but had no See also:children, and he was succeeded by his See also:half-See also:brother See also:CHARLES See also:CECIL See also:COPE JENKINSON, 3rd earl (1784—1851), who See also:left three daughters. The baronetcy then passed to a See also:cousin, and the See also:peerage became See also:extinct. But in 1905 the earldom was revived in the See also:person of the 3rd earl's See also:grandson, CECIL GEORGE SABILE FOLJAMBE (1846-1907), who had been a Liberal member of parliament from 188o to 1892, and in 1893 was created Baron Hawkesbury. He was succeeded in 1907 by his son, See also:Arthur (b.187o).
