HC Deb 16 July 1936 vol 314 cc2220-1
29. Mr. VYVYAN ADAMS

asked the Home Secretary what measures are in contemplation to prevent further anti-Jewish manifestations on the part of members of the British Union of Fascists?

Sir J. SIMON

In the Debate last which are being taken, and I am in com-Friday, I described various measures munication with the Commissioner of Police on the subject.

Mr. ADAMS

As this aspect of the matter could not be raised last Friday, does not my right hon. Friend think that banning all political uniforms might quickly bring to an end this sadistic nuisance?

Sir J. SIMON

That, of course, is a proposal which would involve legislation, but it is a proposal which has by no means been overlooked.

Mr. GALLACHER

If the right hon. Gentleman will look up the evidence in the case of the 12 Communists who were prosecuted in 1925, he will see that on the basis of that case he has an ironclad case against the Fascists.
