The Outer Courts of the Temple
View through CrossRef
Abstract
During the debate on the Import Duties Bill in February 1932, Clement Attlee likened Neville Chamberlain to the ‘chief priest’ at the sacrifice of Free Trade, sitting flanked by his new acolytes, Runciman and Sir John Simon. ‘The real prophets of the new era,’ he observed sardonically, referring to Croft and Amery, ‘have to be content with the outer courts of the temple.’’ As the world toppled into depression after 1929, the last resistance to protectionism within the British business community crumbled. Croft’s backbench forces now dominated the Conservative Party. Yet, as ever, business waited upon politics. And politics sought a way in which protection might be introduced as a national policy in political rhetoric a policy to unite and not divide, but in the eyes of the cynical or the calculating, a policy for which the Conservatives could not be held solely responsible.
