After claiming that the at- tacks, led by Lord Salisbury and other Conservative dissenters amount to a last-ditch stond to try to maintain white rule, where it still exists in Africa, with the open connivance of Whitehall, the Observer added: "That is a polley which not a Conservative guvern- ment can any longer be ex- pected to uphold.
