Debate forces Chamberlain to resign
Tuesday, May 7, 1940 www.onwar.com
Neville Chamberlain after the resignationIn Britain... There is a major debate in the House of Commons on the conduct of the war and especially of the Norwegian campaign. At the vote Chamberlain’s government has a majority of 281-200 but when compared to former support this is not sufficient to allow the government to continue to claim to be representative. Neville Chamberlain resigns. In fact the errors of the Norwegian campaign have been at least as much Churchill’s as any others. However, in a wider sense the responsibility is Chamberlain’s for failing to to establish a coherent decision-making structure to see that plans were properly coordinated and that subordinates worked sensibly and efficiently.
Iirc, there's an interesting story here.
Wasn't the new German bomb sight stolen from Norden?
