Footnotes
GROUP PHOTOGRAPH SIGNED BY CHURCHILL, NEHRU AND SEVEN OTHER COMMONWEALTH PRIME MINISTERS - Official group portrait of the Prime Ministers present at the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference, hosted by Churchill at Downing Street in June 1953, immediately following from Queen Elizabeth's Coronation. Hansard noted that "The Prime Ministers have met at a time of general rejoicing. The presence at the Coronation of representatives of all parts of the Commonwealth has illustrated the unity and the variety of the Commonwealth association of which Her Majesty is the Head. The discussions... demonstrated the concord which exists between all the Governments and peoples of the Commonwealth, despite their varying interests and circumstances, in their approach to the major problems of the world today...". The other signees are Jawaharlal Nehru (India), Robert Menzies (Australia), Louis St. Laurent (Canada), Dudley Senanayake (Ceylon), Sidney Holland (New Zealand), Muhammad Ali Bogra (Pakistan), Sir Godfrey Huggins (Southern Rhodesia), and Daniel Francois Malan (South Africa).
