...London's press this finding was grand news. "It is impossible to read the cold and fearless words of the report without a feeling of pride, surely not unpardonable, in our public and parliamentary traditions," cried the Labor Daily Herald. "For comparison," boomed the Conservative Daily Express, "you need to [recall] the Stavisky Scandal in France and the United States Teapot Dome oil scandals, which dragged on for years."
