I'll readily admit that history is not my favourite subject but even I'll admit to knowing who Winston Churchill was. I mean the wartime PM, not the MP.

My schooling and upbringing had portrayed him as a hero who had got us through the war but a recent facebook post (source of all truths rolleyes) begged to differ and called him all manner of unsavoury things including white supremacist and responsible for Asian famines.

I could, of course, do my homework and decide for myself but seeing as I never did this for history at school, I'm not about to start now. A PH poll shall be my education.

So Winston Churchill - good guy or bad guy?

Thanks everyone, it's been an education. I might even read up a little more on the subject.
