In one of his most bitter attacks against the Government Churchill charged that "we are approaching wry near to dictatorship in Bri- tain-—a. dictatorship without even its criminality or efficiency." Attlee said: "We believe that the powers of the House of Lords are obsolete. . . we did not suggest reform of the Ftouse of Lords whep we went to the electors; what we did say was that we should take pdwers to prevent obstruction and that exactly is what we have done."
