Scope and content

Aneurin Bevan, House of Commons. Regrets that his Brighton speech has been misunderstood, but must accept most of the responsibility himself. Outlines his own case for unilaterally rejecting the H-bomb. Believes that it is essential to eliminate the American and Russian, as well as the British, bomb. Should it not prove possible to modify American policy, then repudiation is always available as a last resort. If the Brighton Conference had decided to adopt Resolution 24, then there would be no hope of a future Labour government in Britain. Believes that the tests should be unilaterally suspended. Is writing to Huw T. Edwards very hurriedly on the eve of his departure for the USA.
