HC Deb 25 November 1920 vol 135 c658W
Major BARNES

asked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been called to a speech by the Secretary of State for War at the Oxford Union Society, on Thursday, 18th November, advocating now and for the future the policy of overthrowing and destroying the Bolshevist government; and whether this is to be considered as the policy of His Majesty's Government?

The PRIME MINISTER

I have read an account of my right hon. Friend's speech, which was, I think, the expression of a hope rather than the declaration of a policy.
