Freedom Fighter. In many ways he reminds of one of my favourite Prime Ministers; Ben Chifley.
Clement Atlee was not voted hte best British PM, Churchill was. What you are referring to is a group of 75 historians who narrowly voted him the best one. he was not the greatest British PM of the 20th Century. It was definitely Churchill.
You state twice in your post that Winston Churchill is the greatest British Prime Minister of the twentieth century, yet you do not specify as to why he deserves a title of grandeour proportions. With the exception of leading Britain during the Second World War it would be interesting as to why you have a profound liking towards Winnie.
I think he deserves the title of "Greatest Prime Minister of Britain" because of his remarkable leadership through World War and making the British People believe they could win the war and defeat Hitler. His effort to hold together the empire, in my mind, is disregardable. It was a different era, and all brits, in somne way or another, were Imperialists at the time. I Like Churchill because he acted as a symbol for his people, and helped guide them to the end of the tunnel.
(Plus, He acted as a counterbalance to Stalin and Roosevelt, even though FDR was a great wartime leader, I fear what he would have done if Harry hadn't come along)
