He was the greatest Briton who ever lived and it's not even close
>>18531235Obviously. Only Indians disagree with this
Here's your (you)
>>18531235Greater than midwits like Pitt and Wellington anyway
>>18531235Maybe third after Elizabeth and Henry Five.
>>18531266The guy who won exactly 1 (one) battle and then immediately shit himself to death, leaving no long term legacy?
>>18531235One of the greatest men to ever live, possibly the greateast man of XX century guy's a legend, simply as
>>18531235>greatest Briton who ever livedShakespeare
>>18531301Shakespeare was just a writer
>>18531235Hero and Patriot
>>18531304Churchill was just a politician.
>>18531315politician and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, a professional soldier and officer in the British Army, an author and historian, a journalist, painter, corresponder, tank designer, aristocrate, bricklayer, racehorse owner, writer, Nobel laureate
>>18531321>no see actually he wasn't just a politician, he was a politician AND a writer!
>>18531324and historian, a journalist, painter, corresponder, tank designer, aristocrate, bricklayer, racehorse owner, Nobel laureate
>>18531326Those are just variations of writer.
>>18531235The greatest Briton is the very first, the founder of that people, that man who first hated a Scot.
>>18531327when you think about it, everything that humans do are variations of writing
>>18531329Especially when it involves sitting in a chair and writing.
>>18531235And he was half-American. This is proof Amerigods are superior to Britkeks
>"Hey Church, aren't you going to defend Poland, one of Britain's allies?">"No my dear boy I will not!">"But why not?">"Because in 87 years into the future some random Indian on a random computer network is going to make mean comments about me if I do :("
>>18531746Who was prime minister in 1939 anon?
>>18531747People only remember Chamberlain for being a coward and resigning before dying of ass cancer
Polegods always win and rape germs
>>18531746Poland exists today.
>>18531321Was particularly notable in any of those capacities? he's probably only notable as a politician/stateman, in particular during a very serious war. Absent that war, would he be any more memorable than an equivalent statesman from 18XX or 19XX? Shakespeare is perhaps the greatest writer of all time, certainly the best writer in English. he was hugely gifted with genius. His ideas and verse are something you'd expect more so from someone who's much older and traveled the world, having many, many experiences to draw from, but he was pragmatic businessman who lived in Stratford and London in the late 1500s. There were no events in particular that "propelled" him to center of the world stage (heh) as they did Churchill. Is he the greatest Briton? maybe not, but he's definitely greater than Churchill, who'd be much less famous had he simple been born another decade. Shakespeare largely would not have been. Also, Shakespeare is a contender for bother smartest man who ever lived and greatest artist who ever lived, but that's not the question. Churchill obviously isn't in those contests, which just goes to show he's not as great a Briton.
>>18531235He was a sassanach dog, not Brythonic.
He was an absolute disaster for Britain.
Just don't ask who bankrolled him after his drunken stock-market gambling led him to bankruptcy.
>>18531321>>18531995>>18531235It's Newton you nigs, and if it wasn't him it'd be one of the many other English scientist who built the modern worldAbsolutely mental that people would a drunk retard or a fucking playwriter as their number one pick
>>18531235He was a fucking loser idiot who doomed the entire empire, greatest Britain?Sounds about right.
>>18532013Newton is also definitely "greater" than Churchill. Like Skapsbeer, he'd be just as great had he lived in another decade, unlike Churchill. >muh built the modern worldWow, so businesses can be more efficient extracting money from peasants and more third worlders have access to smartphones and the internet!!! Truly "great."Half joking about the last part. If we could more directly compare Newton's and Shakespeare's geniuses, that would be interesting, but I can't bother trying to do so now. Both are clearly greater than Church, and in the top 5 no doubt.
>>18531321Literally none of that is remarkable accept being the leader of Britain during WWII.
>>18532012Did they also bankroll the entire wartime cabinet and by extension the Conservative and Labour parties?
>>18531235>BritonHe was norman like most aristocrats. Britons are hobbitic peasants.
>gut the economy by going back to gold too early>gut the military by strongly supporting the ten year rule, presuming we'll have ten years of peace so no need to fund military >gutted Singapore base fundingHe basically got everything wrong and set us up for defeat. At least he realised his mistake earlier than some
>>18531235No, that would be King Alfred the Great.
>>18531321the butcher of gallipoli should not be treated with any amount of respect got thousands of men loyal to the empire killed for his political ambitions, which resulted in him leaving in disgrace due to his failure
>>18531746Is that what he was asked as he spread Polands asshole for Stalin to gape?
>>18531995>Was particularly notable in any of those capacitiesyes>>18532068cope>>18532169>gut the economy by going back to gold too earlyhis party idea, he himself was against it>gut the militarybritain was fucking broke bozo>>18532407not true, few years after WW1 was Churchill's height of populairty
>>18531747>prime minister has absolute powerlearn politics, bindi
>>18532068>>18532647Now UK rape by immigrant lol
>>18532752>Churchill was secretly manipulating Chamberlain into...not defending PolandEh?
Nelson.Powell.Morrissey.Pilkington.Simple as.
>>18532647>he was against itNo he wasn't. He was clueless about what to do and deferred to conservatives against the advice of Keynes. But clueless or not it was HIS call and it was one of the major disasters for Britain in the interwar period and one of if not the major step that doomed Britain to lose its great power status
>>18532012Anon, are you aware that governments have borrowed from private and public banks to fund wars since before the middle ages? How do you think Germany funded their "miracle"? Except they imprisoned a lot of their debtors so I guess it's on par with their institutionalized niggerism.
