Gen 75 Committee
[edit]- ...that Ernest Bevin told the Gen 75 Committee that Britain should acquire atomic bombs "whatever it costs... We've got to have the bloody Union Jack flying on top of it"?
Source: "We've got to have this thing. I don't mind it for myself, but I don't want any other Foreign Secretary of this country to be talked at or to by the Secretary of State of the United States as I have just been in my discussion with Mr Byrnes. We've got to have this thing over here, whatever it costs... We've got to have the bloody Union Jack flying on top of it." [1]

Interesting topic; GA passed in time, properly formatted and meets the criterion. QPQ done. Spot checks indicate no copyplag issues (only matches to Wikimirrors or closely related topics by the same editor). Nice work, good to go. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:33, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
