Clement Attlee

… the Peace Treaties must be scrapped … I stand for no more war and no more secret diplomacy.

— Clement Attlee

— Clement Attlee

You will be judged by what you succeed at gentlemen, not by what you attempt.

You have no right whatever to speak on behalf of the Government. Foreign affairs are in the capable hands of Ernest Bevin. His task is quite sufficiently difficult without the irresponsible statements of the kind you are making . . . I can assure you there is widespread resentment in the Party at your activities and a period of silence on your part would be welcome.

— Clement Attlee
