  Stornoway House was, for a time, the London home of Lord Beaverbrook, Minister for Aircraft Production in Churchill's War Cabinet of 1940.
  On 18 January 1940, still a few months before Churchill became PM, Beaverbrook was visited at Stornoway House by former diplomat and British secret agent in Moscow
  Sir Robert Bruce Lockhart.
  I quote from Lockhart's 1947 book of memoirs, "Comes The Reckoning":
  "On January the 18th, I went to Stornoway House to see Beaverbrook. It was the first time I had met him since the war (started).
  He too was suffering from the frustration of inaction. I found him in his armchair, his legs wrapped in a tweed rug. On the floor in front of him were two huge kettles with spouts as long as golf clubs pouring out a curiously scented steam, which he was inhaling.
  Lord Beaverbrook had an attack of the asthma, which later in the war was to undermine his strength but never diminish his fierce energy. His eyes were watery but he gave me his views with his usual vigour.
  "This Government (one of appeasers led by PM Chamberlain)", he said, " will NEVER win the war,but no-one will ever get them out unless we have big reverses.This is not a real war. Production is bad. A 'phoney' war may land us in a 'phoney' peace. If there's a REAL war, I want to be in it".
  
  Stornoway House played a major role in the abolition of the Slave trade. Later it played a major role in the planning, facilitation and production of the aircraft that won the Battle of Britain. For these reasons alone, this majestic place deserves it's status as a listed and protected building, it's history and services to the cause of humanity has to be remembered.
  NEVER FORGET!
