Plenty evidence of Churchill's quote that would be 100% considered racist today. He's clearly a hero to the right who are blinkered and won't see anything negative said about him, which probably says more about them than it does Churchill.I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

F**ked if I think that Winston Churchill (Not "Churchie", or his latest incarnation!) was an anti-semite...
