A rule which bars statues or pictures of dead statesmen from being put up in the Houses of Parliament within 10 years of their death could be waived for Sir Winston Churchill. The Prime Minister (Mr Wilson), replying to a question in the House of Commons, said he was willing to discuss the matter with other party leaders. The so-called 10-year rule had been eloquently defended by Sir Winston Churchill himself when the question of a statue of Lloyd George was raised, Mr Wilson said. But the rule could certainly be abrogated if that was the general wish, he said.
