HC Deb 08 August 1940 vol 364 c443W
Mr. Purbrick

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will make it plain, both in this country and abroad, that, beyond a nebulous appeal for the cessation of hostilities, the Germans have made no proposals for peace nor any proposals for effective guarantees for the same?

Mr. Butler

Yes, Sir. This has more than once been made clear in public statements by responsible Ministers.
