BR holds the Greek government responsible for the murder of Lambrakis, and mentions that if the proposed Greek royal visit should take place, "... many people here, including myself, will not hesitate to give every assistance to the preparation of emphatic protest." The statement was read by Farley at Lambrakis' funeral, and by Pottle at a demonstration outside the Greek Embassy, London.
