I seem to recall this particular one got worked over pretty thoroughly lo these many moons ago and the conclusion then was there wasn't anything in it - aside from the stuff on Lady Castlerosse making some rather juicy reading (oh, to be 70 again!). The fact is, for the most part, remarkable people like Churchill ARE "just ordinary folks, like the rest of us." Churchill undoubtedly put on his trousers same way I do - one leg at a time. He also brushed his teeth. So what? I await with bated breath the next great revelation (drum roll, maestro) - Churchill SNORED!!! Jonathan Hayes

Both Andrew Roberts, in his upcoming Churchill biography, and I, via Hillsdale.Churchill, will be writing about this in more detail, from our own research and interviews. For the nonce, this should suffice: https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2018/02/churchill-did-not-have-an-affair-so-dont-fall-for-channel-4s-spin/ One may rightly ask, in the age of Harvey Weinstein: who cares? Is this really newsworthy? Well, to wax philosophic: It's really just the old "Feet of Clay School." Some people simply can't accept the concept of a superior individual, of world-changing accomplishment. So they set out to prove they're just ordinary folk, like the rest of us.-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ChurchillChat" group.
