Allowing millions of people to be taken over by the Nazi's?
It was Churchill that pressed for rearmament and constantly warned about the Nazi threat, while Chamberlain lived in his own fantasy world of the League of Nations.
Well enough as a Prime Minister who presided over the latter part of the rearmament.

Actually it was Churchill and Sir Austen Chamberlain - Neville's brother who were among the most vocal members of the rearmament push - and if you want to talk about being part of a fantasy world, look at Sir Austen who won the Nobel Peace Prize because of the 1925 Pact that he claimed made war impossible - but Neville Chamberlain was the Prime Minister. If he hadn't supported rearmament, it would not have happened. Churchill was a backbench Member of Parliament with no real power. Yes, he made a lot of speeches, but he had no power to get anything done. Why did rearmament happen? Because Cabinet took the steps to make it happen. Who was in charge of the Cabinet? Why, it was the Prime Ministers - MacDonald, Baldwin, and then Neville Chamberlain.
It is fairly absurd to try and place credit for rearmament on a backbench MP who, himself, believed his political career had ended after the abdication crisis, and deny it to the Prime Minister who presided over the Cabinet meetings, and the budgets that made it possible.
Agreed.
Though, sadly, Churchill ended up marching to the orders of the globalists, and their games, too.
