I think that part of this message has received much more publicity than the rest of it. The decision of the British Council of Churches and, indeed, the Archbishop's statement on all other questions, except the controversial one, were highly relevant and highly pointed to the discussions which I was having last week. On the question of the use of force, the Archbishop must, of course, be free to make his own statements, but I have made it clear that Her Majesty's Government do not believe that this constitutional problem can be settled by the use of military force.
