Geschiedenis
George Rose was born in Scotland and brought up by his uncle in Middlesex. After serving in the navy for several years, he entered the civil service, eventually rising to Secretary of the Treasury. He entered parliament in 1788 as MP for Lymington, Hampshire, and subsequently served as MP for Christchurch, Hampshire, from 1790 until his death. In the Commons, he was a strong supporter of Pitt the Younger and continued to advocate many of the latter's policies after his death.
