    Churchill went bankrupt twice in his political career - after the stock crash in 1929 and again in 1937. He was bailed out by Bernard Baruch the 1st time and by South African gold-mining tycoon Henry Straikosch in 1937.

    All nations need heroes. When a nation’s past is indiscriminate rapacious pillage & plunder, heroes are hard to come by. So they simply anoint one. Hide his blemishes and gashes, shine a bright light on the rest. Lie & repeat. Have the courage sirs to face your Heroes in ALL their true form.

      ​@@StaxRail There's skeletons in the closet and then there's thousands upon thousands of deaths (using unspeakably torturous methods the kind history books would have you believe only Nazi Germany could create) because you believe your race to be superior to others. Churchill falls within the latter. If he had had his way, the war would have been extended and would have harnessed nuclear weapons. Research Operation Unthinkable to learn more about this. Moreover, Churchill's main fear of Nazi Germany was that it would become the new Global super power. Not the atrocious crimes committed against Jews or the brutality of what a countries occupation entails (e.g. Poland). In fact, both Hitler and Churchill practised similarly awful tactics in order to gain territory for Nazi Germany and the British Empire respectively. All because he was in power. There could have been hundreds of different politicians that could have won us the war, don't feel patriotic towards that scumbag of a man.

I get that Churchill was responsible for several atrocities, but at the same time the good he did for the world far outweighs the negatives.

      ​@@StaxRail I didn't say you thought that the white race was superior, i was using 'you' as a general 'you' rather than being specific to Churchill. Also I think I made it clear that obviously Hitler was a terrible terrible person, the point I was making was that Churchill and Hitler held many similarities in the way of thinking as well as running concentration camps and taking over countries. He may have won us a war but he was never held accountable for his atrocities in his lifetime, and I think its important for people to acknowledge his awful actions so that we don't raise our children worshipping a man whose job was circumstantial and replaceable. The second World War was an ugly time for humanity. German and British, instead of making our victory such a big part of British patriotism I think its something we should move forward from. People love to forget what Churchill did and brush it under the rug - and while Hitler did kill more and as you said a dictator, it doesn't cheapen the countless lives lost due to Churchill.
