 This, the first tangible British peace offer, is a fresh indication of our strength and proof of England's weakness. Peace conditions at the expense of our allies are unacceptable to us.

 Lloyd Georges declarations show a tone in regard to us which is indeed changed, but the old imperialistic aims are wholly maintained.
