HC Deb 15 May 1978 vol 950 c65W
Mr. Lee

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if the recent interview in Areopagus by the Marshal of the Royal Air Force Sir Neil Cameron likening the Soviet Union to the anti-Christ had been approved by his Department; and if it represents the policy of Her Majesty's Government.

Mr. Luard

It has been made clear that Sir Neil Cameron's remarks quoted in "Areopagus" were his personal views, expressed in a private capacity.

My right hon. Friend decribed the Government's present policy towards the Soviet Union when he addressed the British/Soviet Parliamentary Group on 9th May, and has arranged for the text of his remarks to be placed in the Library of the House.
