This article focuses on various issues related to politics. The Italian counter-blow against the Austrians on the river Piave practically ended on June 24, 1918 since when there has been no marked advance. At present the Italians have completely reoccupied the western bank of the Piave. Ireland and the Irish muddle again came to the fore in British Premier Lloyd George's announcement in the House of Commons on June 25, 1918 that, before putting conscription in operation in Ireland, a scheme of voluntary recruiting should be put up. The British Labor Party, at its conference in London, England on June 26, 1918 passed a resolution ending the party truce that has been in effect since early in the war.
