What would be the effects of the Pelham brothers including William Pitt the Elder in their government in 1744? In OTL he was hated by the king for attacking the Hanoverian subsidy before, so if he doesn't ITTL then it is likely he would have been included then instead of in 1746.
Also, would the Duke of Cumberland still lead British forces in the Austrian Netherlands or would Pitt argue against it and win?
