I doubt one in five of this generation was even properly educated enough to know who he was!

In a 2002 BBC survey, Churchill was voted the greatest Briton of all time. But in recent years, Left-wing critics have increasingly focused on his apparent racism and his support for the British Empire, rather than on his stand against Hitler and the defeat of fascism.

Wow, a complete about face just since 2002. If nothing else, the Woke forces behind historical revisionism sure are efficient.

Just 17 per cent of young people believe the British Empire did more good than harm, compared with 61 per cent of the 65-plus group.

The historical revisionists have been busy.

Just one in five 18-to-24-year-olds

Assuming the age range is inclusive it is still surprising that a generation is now 7 years. Puberty must be coming earlier now.

The crimes of Winston Churchill

medium.com

Churchill was a genocidal maniac. He is fawned over in Britain and held up as a hero of the nation — voted ‘Greatest Briton’ of all time. Below is the real history of Churchill. The history of a white supremacist whose hatred for Indians led to four million starving to death. The man who loathed Irish people so much he conceived different ways to terrorise them. A racist thug who waged war on black people across Africa and in Britain. This is the trial of Winston Churchill,

Four out of five Woke Bolshis think Churchill is where the Coca-Cola bears live.

Just one in five 18-to-24-year-olds say they have a positive view of the former Prime Minister, compared with 58 per cent of over-65s, a poll has revealed.

Interesting In that if not for him they’d be speaking German or wouldn’t exist because their grandparents would have been exterminated.

Churchill individually saved Europe but liberal historians ignore selective facts.

It would appear that UK schools are trying to be as deplorable as are ours. However, they’ll still have a long way to go since we’ve got the NEA and like-minded butt holes which are quite adept at making sure that the basics will never be taught again. And they’ve got fugly tattoos, wierd hair, and nose rings to prove it.

Purely a result of our declining public schools.

I'm willing to bet that four out of five of these 18-to-24-year-olds couldn't tell you very much about Winston Churchill.

When western civilization ultimately collapses does it really matter who was a great Briton or American?
