10th May 1940 - The Day It All Changed 🧵 At 08:00 AM, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain chaired a meeting of the war cabinet. Held unusually early as the war cabinet had been informed of some distressing news.

Spent the evening working on said article - specifically going through the war cabinet papers on Bomber Command. (Given Cooper’s ridiculous comments surrounding Churchill & aerial bombardment.) Time for an evening cigar, then off to bed - will continue working on the article in

The aged statesman, Sir Winston Churchill, on holiday at the French Rivera (in 1963). The old lion would pass away less than two years later, at 90.

How historically illiterate does one have to be to compare Winston Churchill to Ho Chi Minh? Then again, I’ve seen your video covering the Bengal Famine, so I’m fully aware that you’re clueless. What a surprise, the author of ‘Fully Automated Luxury Communism’ is a muppet. 🤡

Average day on twitter/x.

On the 24th January 1965, the day that Sir Winston Churchill died, President Lyndon B. Johnson issued the following statement, "WHEN THERE was darkness in the world, and hope was low in the hearts of men, a generous Providence gave us Winston Churchill. As long as men tell of

On the 10th May 1942 during a broadcast, Winston Churchill made fun of Hitler. Speaking of the Nazi invasion of the USSR, he said, “There is a winter, you know, in Russia. For a good many months the temperature is apt to fall very low. There is snow, there is frost, and all

In 1946, at a meeting in Buckingham Palace, Aneurin Bevan - Minister of Health - spotted something with Winston Churchill. Telling Churchill, “Winston, for heaven’s sake, your flies are undone”; Churchill responded, “You needn’t bother yourself about that. Dead birds never

On the death of Sir Winston Churchill, Charles de Gaulle wrote to Churchill's wife Clementine, "Dans le grand drame, il était le plus grand." Translated, it means "in the great drama, he was the greatest."

On the 28th May 1940, Winston Churchill told the full cabinet that, "If this long island story of ours is to end at last, let it end only when each of us lies choking in his own blood upon the ground." The following day Churchill issued a strictly confidential note to Cabinet

No, he didn’t. Stop sniffing glue.

I’ve made significant progress on the article disproving the Carlson-Cooper drivel. Time for a cigar break.

Two things. Firstly, you're clearly a vile antisemite. But secondly, a good 'litmus test' for whether someone is educated on Churchill or not is the question: was he a drunk? Because he wasn't. He was rarely drunk - he had an extraordinary tolerance for alcohol. Moreover, as

“Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.” - Winston Churchill, 19th May 1940.

You're clearly unaware of the absolute hell Winston Churchill endured during WW2. From May-December 1940 alone, he battled enough crises for eight lifetimes.

Sir Winston Churchill greets the Ooni of Ife in the grounds of Blenheim Palace, during the 1953 Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference. This Palace was where Churchill was born in 1874 - as he was of Marlborough kin, with his grandfather being the 7th Duke of Marlborough.

Ah, the ridiculous 'hammer and sickle' school of history. To say that Winston Churchill 'was an admirer of Hitler in the beginning' is utterly ludicrous. Hitler literally refused to see Churchill in Munich in August 1932 - half a year prior to him taking power - as Churchill

“Last time I saw it all coming and cried aloud to my own fellow-countrymen and to the world, but no one paid any attention.” - Winston Churchill on the Second World War; 5th March 1946. (The photograph is of Churchill in Normandy on the 12th June 1944. He is with Field Marshal
