Churchill's speeches were popular even with those who disagreed with him
because of their content I suspect it was because he wrote them himself and
his own personality came through in them. Are there any political figures
today who write their own speeches? I should be very much surprised if there
were.
(Personal note: when I was in the Air Force, once a month it would be my
squadron commander's turn to write a column in the Base newspaper. I had the
job of writing them for him.)

Boris Johnson does not seem to suffer from his eccentric speaking style.
