Hey, Greg. Watching a series about Winston Churchill on Prime Video. Hard to fathom that England would most likely run him out of town if he were in power today.
Hi, Mick.
He pretty much got run out of town shortly after the war, didn't he? Almost a pariah near the end, if I recall.
Margaret Thatcher wouldn't last long either, I think.

Yes, he did. Seems the plain spoken and politics are often a poor match.
Mick, another one that got jettisoned quickly was Hugh Dowding, the architect of the fighter defense during the Battle of Britain. He was gone before the year was out after the Battle. Another headstrong and plain spoken man.
