British Bill on Shipping Interdiction Sparks Debates
The Government’s proposed bill to prevent British ships from transporting men to Spain faced sharp debate. Mr Turneiman argued Spain would block arrivals by sea, and ministers insisted the Royal Navy should not aid contraband shipments. Speakers including Noel Baker and Sir Archibald Boyd argued the measure aimed to curb European war risk, while domination concerns and the interwar context colored the discussion. The division ended with 288 to 183 in favor.
