Churchill Criticizes British Palestine Policy At Party Conference
Winston Churchill attacked Britain's government for vacillation and lack of policy on Palestine while in Blackpool to address a national party conference. He warned Tory tactics were gaining distrust and hostility among Arabs and Jews and criticized the Labour government over India and relations with the Soviet Union. He denied resigning leadership, vowed to carry the flag, and contrasted a shrinking empire with a expanding Russia, urging continued wartime ties with the Soviet Union if possible.
