HC Deb 04 November 1965 vol 718 c1233
Q10. Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the Prime Minister what arrangements Her Majesty's Government are now making for the celebration of the anniversary of the Battle of Hastings during 1966.

The Prime Minister

I have as yet nothing to add to the Answer I gave to a Question by the hon. Member for Woking (Mr. Onslow) on 6th July.

Sir Knox Cunningham

May I congratulate the Prime Minister on not being stampeded? Is he aware of the pleasure with which the whole nation anticipates celebrating next year the defeat of Harold?

The Prime Minister

We had that joke, I believe, elaborated on 6th July. Indeed, I think that it was reported in column 1343 of the OFFICIAL REPORT, but the hon. and learned Gentleman can look it up if he wishes. I congratulate the hon. and learned Gentleman's return to the subject and for catching up on the joke several months later.

Sir Knox Cunningham
