    The Crimes of Winston Churchill

    “I’d rather see them have a good civil war”. – Churchill wishing partition on India

    “I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against the uncivilized tribes… it would spread a lively terror.” – Churchill on the use of gas in the Middle East and India

    “100,000 removed Britons should be forcibly sterilised/others put in labour camps to halt decline of British race”. He also went on to suggest that “for tramps and wastrels there ought to be proper labour colonies where they could be sent”.
