What would you say are the top 3 prime ministers, mine would be :

  1. Clement Attlee - This is the guy who got the NHS founded and started up, this shit would NEVER happen under a tory led government.

I thank him for making the public health service as in my experience it had made my life easier in acquiring hearing aids more easily than private funded ones.

  1. Winston Churchill - For getting us through the war years with keeping our morale up as the Nazi menace goose stepped across Europe and tried to take us over.

Now I am aware that Churchill has some flaws of his own, bit of that 40s racism and the bengal famine, but as a Briton there’s a reason why he’s still celebrated as a hero akin to the U.S’s FDR or Charles De Gaulle of France.

  1. Gordon Brown - So Gordon Brown has the personality of a bowl of a dull bran flakes, but I think personally had some good economic candour and few scandals (At least from what I’ve seen).

The gentleman might have not been quirky or villainous or most modern PMs but he certainly showed to be somewhat effective steering the nation.

And that is my top 3, what are your picks lads and ladies?

(Keir doesn’t count, he’s really done anything yet)
