50th anniversary of Churchill's death

[ChemicalChaos]

This Saturday apparently marks 50 years since the passing of Churchill. I shall be choosing to remember the great man as an example of everything our current crop of plastic politicians are not.

Unfortunately, some people are using the opportunity to put the boot in:

Should those issues be overlooked?

No, but it's the fact that the BBC (it was always going to be them or the Guardian) have to come out with a wholly negative article painting him as a far right nutcase. They just simply cannot join everyone in celebrating the considerable life and achievements of the man, without having to piss on the parade and denigrate figures from our history that don't fit with their ultra-pc mantra.

Its just like the BBC coverage of Thatcher's death - negative after negative after negative about what she did in power
