Debate on Indian troops movement ends in large Commons division
The India troop question closes after a long three night debate in the House of Commons. Conservatives used many MPs and even sought Dawson Damer as ill health and Beaconsfield’s anxiety are noted. Roebuck’s seat dispute and Dillwyn’s hospitality trigger cross chatter as the motion moves through Committee of Supply and finally to a silent division on transport costs.
