You are talking about winning. That was not the point I made. I said that Churchill led the charge. He was absolutely alone until the US joined us. Nobody doubts that it would have been difficult to win the war had circumstances turned out differently.

I don't understand the point you made about failing to win the peace. His legacy secured peace in Europe although the EU may wish to spin it differently to take the credit!
