Just a thought

So the government is to have a crackdown on those going off to fight in the Middle East:
Speaking at Downing Street after his return from a pre-referendum trip to Scotland, Cameron said: "It is becoming clear that there are some gaps in our armoury and we need to strengthen them. We need to do more to stop people travelling, to stop those who do go from returning and to deal decisively with those who are already here."
If Cameron had been Prime Minister in the 1930s, what would have been his attitude to those Brits (such as Orwell) who travelled to Spain to fight alongside communists and anarchists in the Spanish civil war?
