Default Re: Winston Churchill didn't exist

The truth abouty Churchill was that he was the exact opposite of a team or group of people. He was a man on an island. At a time when appeasement was the rule of the court when dealing with Nazi Germany, he was one of the few vocally against trading and working with Hitler. Hell, the German Airforce ran half its planes on Rolls Royce engines because of Chamberlain and other "ignore them and they'll go away" politicians. But honestly, it was his inspriational speeches that kept the nation together. He was one of the greatest orators of all time.

He was a man of principle, who did care about his legacy as an aging statesman, but he wanted his legacy to be great for the right reasons.

And for the record, Orwell wrote 1984 and Animal farm as responses to communism. Brave New World is the epitome of the nanny state that so many wish upon themselves today.
