HC Deb 05 June 1924 vol 174 c1449
48. Mr. HOPE

asked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that the Home Secretary has sent a message to a candidate at the General Election pending in South Africa wishing success to the Labour party in that election; and whether he sanctioned this action?

Mr. CLYNES

I am informed by my right hon. Friend the Home Secretary that he has neither sent nor authorised any message such as that referred to in the first part of the question. The last part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
