King George VI and the Queen Elizabeth had a religious emphasis which constantly underlined their support for the appeasement of Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. They had like Baldwins and Chamberlain's fallen into the clutches of the Buchmanites , a pacifist Christian movement which was anti-communist and led by Dr Frank Buchman a man who had an ambivilent attitude to Hitler.
Many of those younger friends of George VI and the Queen like the Marquess of Hamilton, British tennis ace Bunny Austin and others supported Buchman's call for Moral Rearmament.
