That'll be the same prime minister that shat all over Bomber Command then . . . worth respecting unless you're one of the 55,000 casualties' next of kin of course.

To add to the thread drift, the Poles who fought with the British forces received the same treatment from Churchill at the end of the war.


I am a great admirer of Churchill, and possibly understand the politics that made him do this, but having a WW2 Polish heritage and great respect for Bomber Command, it just doesn't seem right.
