NO-CONFIDENCE MOTIONS
Sir,— Now that the United Party, per medium of its candidates everywhere, has pledged itself to vote against Reform on a no-confidence motion moved by Labour, what about a few queries from now on as to how Labour will vote on a similar motion moved by the United Party? You can never tell till the numbers go up, but it is quite a reasonable proposition to expect that the United Party will at least displace Labour as the official Opposition in the next Parliament, and electors are quite entitled to know what Labour will do in the circumstances suggested, and also to get an indication as to whether Labour will favour an amalgamation with Reform to enable it to carry on. Mr. Holland as Minister of Marine would probably fill the bill quite as well as a previous Labour stalwart did in a Reform Government, but the average Labour elector is not likely to be voting with that idea before him —and it is just as well to know. Therefore, put the question I J. REA.
