It is the evident wish and will of Parliament and thenation that this should be conceived on the broadest possible basis and that it should include all parties, both those who supported the lateGovernment and also the parties of the Opposition. I have completed the most important part of this task. A War Cabinet has been formed of fiveMembers, representing, with the Opposition Liberals, the unity of the nation. The three party Leaders have agreed to serve, either in the WarCabinet or in high executive office. The three Fighting Services have been filled. It was necessary that this should be done in one single day, onaccount of the extreme urgency and rigour of events. A number of other positions, key positions, were filled yesterday, and I am submitting afurther list to His Majesty tonight. I hope to complete the appointment of the principal Ministers during tomorrow. The appointment of the otherMinisters usually takes a little longer, but I trust that, when Parliament meets again, this part of my task will be completed, and that theAdministration will be complete in all respects.I considered it in the public interest to suggest that the House should be summoned to meet today. Mr. Speaker agreed, and took the necessarysteps, in accordance with the powers conferred upon him by the Resolution of the House. At the end of the proceedings today, the Adjournment ofthe House will be proposed until Tuesday, 21st May, with, of course, provision for earlier meeting, if need be. The business to be considered duringthat week will be notified to Members at the earliest opportunity. I now invite the House, by the Motion which stands in my name, to record itsapproval of the steps taken and to declare its confidence in the new Government.To form an Administration of this scale and complexity is a serious undertaking in itself, but it must be remembered that we are in the preliminarystage of one of the greatest battles in history, that we are in action at many other points in Norway and in Holland, that we have to be prepared inthe Mediterranean, that the air battie is continuous and that many preparations, such as have been indicated by my hon. Friend below theGangway, have to be made here at home. In this crisis I hope I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today. I hope that anyof my friends and colleagues, or former colleagues, who are affected by the political reconstruction, will make allowance, all allowance, for any lackof ceremony with which it has been necessary to act. I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: "I havenothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what isour policy? I can say: It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war againsta monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answerin one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, thereis no survival. Let that be realised; no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for theurge and impulse of the ages, that mankind will move forward towards its goal. But I take up my task with buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that ourcause will not be suffered to fail among men. At this time I feel entitled to claim the aid of all, and I say, "come then, let us go forward togetherwith our united strength."ItFont Family Font SizeE. ZEEBIU2.
