Answer

Pierlot was accused of being "cowardly" by Conservatives for going into exile during World War II. Conservatives argued that he should have remained in Belgium and resisted the German invasion. However, Pierlot believed that he could be more effective in exile, where he could continue to lead the Belgian government-in-exile and represent the interests of the Belgian people.
