Doug Baker - Elbows Up!<p>Interesting question: what to put on the new <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a> banknotes? I know it wouldn't happen, but I'd suggest <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/WinstonChurchill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WinstonChurchill</span></a>...at least for, say, 5 or 10 years. He had his faults, yes. but in his time he was one of the greatest leaders of the Greatest Generation. YOUR suggestions?<br><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jul/05/british-new-banknotes-bank-of-england-money?CMP=GTUK_email" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/commentisfree/</span><span class="invisible">2025/jul/05/british-new-banknotes-bank-of-england-money?CMP=GTUK_email</span></a></p>

👉After a bit more than 100 days in office, #Fascism takes hold of the #USA 👈

In Fulton, #Missouri, on March 5, 1946, WWII #British PM #WinstonChurchill said in his famous speech, "...an "#IronCurtain" has descended across the continent."
Even though I had long expected it, it now shocks more that likewise, it might be said today, "A brown, all encompassing Brown Spiderweb is descending on a Nation that once was the Leader of the #FreeWorld...

I knew that *Darkest Hour*, a movie about #WinstonChurchill, had been released in 2017. But until glancing at some clips of it today, I had no idea that it was, in large part, a dramatisation of the story told by John Lukacs in *Five Days in London*.

I think it's little-known that the UK nearly pursued peace talks with the Nazis in 1940, that the government was far from united in the idea that they should fight on — I didn't know that until my late thirties.

Useless quote for 29 May:

"… such a continuous stream of standardized opinion, borne along upon an equally inexhaustible flood of news and sensation, collected from every part of the world every hour of the day, that there is neither the need nor the leisure for personal reflection. All this is but a part of a tremendous educating process. But it is an education which passes in at one ear and out at the other."

~ Winston Churchill, in his essay "Mass Effects in Modern Life" (1 Dec 1925)
