//Although the member states of the holy alliance shared a greater aversion to revolution than the British the organisation rarely met at this time and was described as: "A piece of sublime nonsense," "A ludicrous contract" and "A high sounding nothing," by representatives of Britain, France and Austria respectively, the latter a member of the alliance herself. //The quadruple Alliance did not issue a mandate for French intervention in Spain due to divisions of interests among its members. Instead French forces moved into Spain with the support of Russia, but with no Prussian or Austrian consent. The British expressly opposed the invasion, seeing it as a reversal of the peninsular wars. Indeed France's contradiction of the Alliance in her invasion of Spain has led many historians to declare this point as the effective end of the quadruple alliance.
