Churchill sent 150 extra police to stop the rioting and violence by the strikers. When the police couldn't control the rioting, soldiers were sent in. Many rioters and police/soldiers were hurt. Union workers tend to get physical or else they wouldn't need the authorities to intervene.It wasnt just him though. The whole country opposed the Nazis apart from the upper classes like Sir Oswald Mosley, Tilly and Lord Northcliffe.I'm no history scholar, but I like the way he refused to submit to Hitler.Churchill was a twat. He is not a hero everywhere.
Churchill opposed, 100 years on
Chuchill sent the army to attack striking Welsh miners. He was a twat.
