asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the resentment aroused among people of different religious denominations by the present exhibition in London of a statue which offends against public decency, he will, in exercise of his powers to prevent blasphemous or obscene exhibitions, instruct the police to remove or confiscate the statue in question; or what other steps he will take to guard against any breach of the peace which might be provoked by this spectacle?

I have no information which leads me to suppose that any action is necessary.

Is my right hon. Friend not aware that there is very real resentment against this deplorable statue, and is it not possible to take some action about it?
