Winston a man of his time

What an excellent article last week by Mary Ellen Synon about the Sir Winston Churchill Memorial Trust, which has decided to remove ‘Winston’ from its title because his views on race are now ‘unacceptable’.

These ridiculous revisionists don’t appear to understand that great men and women were indeed of their own time. How many of us might not be here now if this man at that point in his life and that time had failed to coincide?

If you view the past through the lens of 21st Century woke ideology, no historical figure will pass muster.
