HC Deb 15 May 1939 vol 347 cc1009-10W
Mr. V. Adams

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that many victims of foreign persecution are desirous of fighting for Great Britain if she is involved in war; and whether he will now consider the establishment in this country of a foreign legion in which foreign nationals could enlist for service under the British Crown?

Sir V. Warrender

The subject has again been carefully considered, and it has been decided that in present circumstances the establishment of a foreign legion is not practicable.
