§ 79. Major-General Sir Alfred Knoxasked the Minister of Information what steps are being taken to make known the British point of view on Spain?
Mr. CooperThe foreign policy of His Majesty's Government is made the subject of public statements from time to tine. These statements receive publicity through the usual channels, namely, the Press and the wireless.
§ Sir A. KnoxDoes my right hon. Friend realise that the British case is going by default in Spain and that the Germans are very much more active in their propaganda? Is it possible to send British newspapers to Spain?
Mr. CooperMy hon. and gallant Friend asks in the Question whether the British point of view on Spain is being made known, and not whether our views are being made known in Spain.
§ Sir A. KnoxI meant "in" Spain.
§ Mr. HicksIf it is intended that our views shall be made known in Spain, will the Minister consult with the British Trades Union Congress in order that the really collective point of view of Great Britain may be conveyed to Spain and the Spanish people?
§ Captain PluggeIs my right hon. Friend aware that we do not dispose of a medium broadcasting station that covers the Iberian Peninsula?
