Boris is not, and never will be, a Churchill - you demean the memory of a great man by equating him with a proven liar, adulterer, and philanderer.

btw, not to undervalue Churchill and Britain’s contribution to the Allied War effort, but he did not "win the war for us" - Britain won the war as part of an Alliance of nations, and Russia had a major part in taking on the Nazis, bogging them down on the Eastern Front, draining men and materiel from the Western Front.
And America made us pay a heavy price for it. The end of Empire and our place as a superpower. A financial system pegged to the dollar.

Yet, they're the ones we are pinning our hopes on!

Anyway I'll leave the Brexiteers to their World War 2 nostalgia for the evening...
