    People only remember Churchill for his WW2 activities. Apart from that, he was a pure barsteward, and not to be listened to. Anyone who gets British troops to fire on British workers should get shot - and so should he have.

    Agree, he was a first class ****, anyone could have done what he did during the war, but a few quotes by the **** posted on here are spot on

    Going by what you wrote Olof, someone didn't like Churchill, probably a lefty who doesn't like any of our leaders, and doing what Churchill stated in the above pic.

    Whatever people think of Churchill, he's the reason we're not frog marching around saluting a crooked cross that looks like a broken window frame.

    Churchill was the one that stood up to, and defied the so called might of Hitler's war machine. Churchill also convinced Hitler to turn some of his troops towards the Russian front and Russia, knowing they were ill equipped and not trained for arctic conditions, thus saving most of Europe from German or Russian rule. Merkel's trying the same thing now.

    Hitler said of Churchill, "with my forces and your brains, we can take the world"......not sure of the exact wording.

    Other compliments towards our other leaders in their field,

    Maggie Thatcher called the Iron Lady.

    Johann Cruyff, "when Leeds have the ball they make you dance".

    What name will they give Nigel Farage once Brexit is complete.....:emoticon-0148-yes:

    He was still a ****, anyone can say, whilst pissed up on whiskey and in the safety of his bunker "we will fight them on the beaches" ,
    WJ, is correct, the bastard ordered innocent people to be shot, Thatcher, and Blair are from the same mold. absolute ****s, evil bastards who didn't give a **** about how many people died for their own political gain.
    I only agree with his quotes I posted earlier

    Totally understand Olof, wasn't having a crack at you for agreeing with someone else's put down of Churchill. I and others see Churchill differently, all leaders have flaws, even the best of them, my point was, Churchill was defiant of Hitler, Hitler did taunt Churchill before the war, and as I mentioned, this is the man who gave this country, and Europe freedom from Nazi rule.

    He didn't always spend his time in bunkers, he had numerous attempts on his life, a few by Nazis, and had a lookalike stand in

    I don't dispute he had his bad side, all leaders and most politicians do, but in these type of instances should also be recognised for their good deeds, and he's down in history for what he achieved during ww2.

    Is there a leader anywhere in the world that didn't have a bad side, or didn't have negatives written about them.

    I hate Blair with a passion by the way.

    I suspect Francis Drake, Nelson, Robin Hood, King Arthur, Genghis Khan and others had a bad side too, no one's perfect.......:emoticon-0148-yes:

    So you're saying we should remember the Yorkshire Ripper for making his mum a cup of tea & forget he was murdering scum - just like Churchill? <doh>

    I'm even more convinced now that you're in an asylum if you carry stupid views like that. Hitler once made a daisy chain for a school chum, so let's forget the 6 million Jews he murdered & remember the daisy chain. <doh>

    Are you for real? <doh>

    i agree none of this wishy washy brigade will do.daft as it may seem and i think boris is a good laugh but at least he can say fook off and mean it.
    maybe just maybe we need someone from the military to run for P.M now that would be interesting .i can just see corbyn and the dogooders joining hands around a bloody campfire singing "give peace a chance"
