There was little chance of a lasting settlement between Britain and the Soviet Union until the Kremlin changed its "ideo: logical attitude", the Foreign Secretary, Mr. Ernest Bevin, told Parliament tonight.
"The trouble which is preventing agreement is the assumption that any settlement we may make must be so designed as to further the Com- munist objective," he said.
Mr. Bevin was opening a two-day debate in the
