I can't believe that certain peeps would even consider placing one of GREAT Britains GREATEST heroes on the WORST list! Notwithstanding the fact that some of his decisions were suspect, WE WON! Let us not forget that, as Beags rightly puts, he effectively snapped victory from the proverbial. In my opinion (and I daresay i'm probably not alone on this one), without the great times-reading-cigar-smoking-charismatic-yet-doesn't-mince-his-words Mr Churchill, we would probably be all wearing black garb and goose-stepping about the place shouting in annoyingly edgy visigoth/hun accents. Too frequently, we allow poor decisions (in this case, the minority) to tarnish great ones (in this case, to not accept defeat). I can think of a few worst Britains:

Liam Gallagher (and his T!at brother)

Ken Dodd

Wrotter

The Krankies

Lemmon Drop Kid
