HC Deb 30 January 1940 vol 356 cc984-5W
Mr. Creech Jones

asked the Secretary of State for War what instructions have been issued to the soldiers in France that they must not make complaints in their letters home and be careful not to prejudice the morale of the people at home?

Mr. Stanley

The only instruction bearing on this point is that no mention or allusion must be made, in private correspondence, to criticisms or statements calculated to bring into disrepute our Forces or those of our Allies.
