Churchill referred to him as 'a terrier who won't let go."

Or leading #LabourParty into #GE2029 as #Leaderbyrightofsiccession, which happened to #ClementAttlee at #GE1935, #GeorgeLansbury refused to accept a #LabourNEC decision and resigned suddenly just as #GeneralElection was being called, wasn't time to organise a #LabourLeadershipElection.

this essay articulates much of my own discomfort with progressive dismissal of churchill & with how many progressives don't seem to distinguish between "awful" on one hand and "world-ending nightmare" on the other

#OnThisDay in 1945, the #LabourParty won majority of 146 on a plurality of 47.7%, enabling #ClementAttlee to construct the British #welfarestate but he also handed #Palestine over to #Zionists to ethnically cleanse its indigenous population — a process that continues

😊 The day job enabled me to capture this yesterday.

⭐️ Clement (the first Earl) Attlee, another hero as a former prime minister.

🔍 So, this afternoon, Clement Attlee's post-prime ministership.

🤔 Did you know that The Archbishop of Canterbury once publicly implored Earl Attlee 'not to be so ungenerous'?

#ClementAttlee was born #OnThisDay in 1883; his greatest failure was handing #Palestine to #Zionist terrorists to ethnically cleanse it of its indigenous Palestinian population, the foundation of the state of #ApartheidIsrael which is continuing to this very day...
