HC Deb 20 June 1934 vol 291 cc387-8W
Mr. THORNE

asked the Home Secretary whether he has received a report from the Commissioner of Police in con- nection with the anti-Fascist meeting held in Hyde Park on Sunday; whether there were any breaches of the peace; and if a record was kept by the police of the statements made by the speakers in connection with the Fascist meeting held at Olympia on 7th June?

Sir J. GILMOUR

Yes, Sir; I have obtained a report from the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis who informs me that an anti-Fascist rally and demonstration, convened by the London district party committee of the Communist party of Great Britain, was held in Hyde Park on the 17th instant. There was no disorder at any time and no arrests were made. The answer to the last part of the question is in the affirmative.
