Letter to Chaim Weizmann
Introduction
The Palestine Arab riots of 1929 triggered British government activity the purpose of which was to renege on the Palestine Mandate. Following the Hope-Simpson report and based on its recommendations, the British responded with the Passfield White Paper of 1930, which was the first attempt to limit Jewish immigration to Palestine. The Passfield White Paper evoked considerable opposition from the Zionist movement and was rescinded effectively in a letter issued to Haim Weizmann by PM Ramsay Macdonald.
