Originally posted by Old Greg View PostThat was your tedious link. Here's something from the Oxford University Press website:

From Churchill by his Contemporaries, edited by Charles Eade, 1954.
Chapter 1, 'The Youngest Man in Europe' Pages 12 - 13 (on extract from linky):
'During his final term he also plunged for the first time into public controversy. When the eminent moral reformer Mrs Ormiston Chant organized a campaign to exclude prostitutes from the bar of the Empire Theatre in Leicester Square, Churchill incited some of his fellow cadets to riot and pull down the screens which had been put up to separate prostitutes from theatre-goers. 'Ladies of the Empire', Churchill declared in an improptu speech, 'I stand for Liberty!'

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostAm on primitive hand held device so cannot do linky right now. The Empire Theatre introduced measures to separate prostitutes from respectable individuals. Churchill led the riot against the decision.
Hence linky please.
