After taking office, Gore supported every Administration in turn. There is no record of his having spoken in the House during this period. In 1761 he was mentioned as a candidate for Speaker, but Newcastle considered him to be ‘too old and infirm’.1Newcastle to Bedford, 10 Oct. 1761, Bedford mss. He survived a three-cornered contest at Cricklade in 1761, but was forced to decline at the general election of 1768.
