Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 20 October 1949.

With great respect, I cannot be punished, so to speak, if in the opinion of the hon. Gentleman the last Debate misfired somewhat; nor would I dare express an opinion about that, because I might get into trouble with the House. I really think that two days is the right period. My own judgment is—and everybody is entitled to his opinion—that we shall get a better Debate in two days than we should if it were extended to three days.
