Morality and legality

Sir: The Government, and The Spectator, put morality before strict legality in dealing with the unfortunate Ugandan Asians.

Would it be unreasonable to ask the Government to put morality before strict legality in dealing with the Rhodesians and allow them to be represented at the Cenotaph Service in November to honour their dead who died on our behalf?
