§ 33. Colonel Wedgwoodasked the Home Secretary whether steps will be taken by the police to prevent Fascist interruptions at the meetings addressed by Cabinet Ministers which are broadcast, as such interruptions are designed to, and do, help the enemy?
§ Sir J. AndersonHowever much one may deplore such interruptions I am afraid I can only reply that, as I am sure the right hon. and gallant Gentleman will recognise, public meetings addressed by Cabinet Ministers are, under the law of this country, in the same position as any other public meetings, and no greater protection against interruptions can be given to Cabinet Ministers than to other speakers.
§ Colonel WedgwoodIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that if the interrupters were Communists they would be thrown out at once, and that merely because they are Fascists they are not?
