And yet they voted him out. How betrayed he must have felt.

He was actually quite magnanimous about the whole thing. After the Labour Party screwed things up for the next six years or so, he came back to be reelected.

As Winnie undoubtedly knew: “Every political career ends in failure.”

It is interesting on that aspect. Surprisingly the voters did not realize that voting for Labor would result in the removal of Churchill. It was towards the end of the war. The population was tired of privation and lack of housing. They bought what Labor was selling. Other note...rationing continued for another ten years in England. Here is the US..pretty much within minutes of the end of the war...rationing was eliminated. (Slight exaggeration perhaps, but pretty quick.)
