§ 32. Mr. TREVELYANasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the passage of the Military Service (Conventions with Allied States) Act, he proposes to continue to forcibly deport any further French subjects to France in order that they may be conscripted there?
§ Mr. BRACEThe legislation in question does not at present apply to French subjects in this country, and my right hon. Friend sees no sufficient reason for making a change in the practice at the present moment.
§ Mr. W. THORNEIs not the hon. Member aware that the French have plenty of enemies in front of them, without having enemies behind them in this House?
