Humanity would have plunged into a new dark age of absolutely frightening and appalling characteristics without Churchill.
Boris Johnson
Image
The next Tory leader would have to unify his party and ensure that Britain stood tall in the world.

The difference between Hitler's speeches and Churchill's speeches was that Hitler made you think he could do anything Churchill made you think you could do anything.

I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.

I think it's absolutely amazing and how the Remain side have the cheek to come and tell us that we improve our security by staying in this organisation I do not understand.

I want you to know that I have nothing against Orlando, though you are, of course, far more likely to get shot or robbed there than in London.

I want London to be a competitive, dynamic place to come to work.

My friends, as I have discovered myself, there are no disasters, only opportunities. And, indeed, opportunities for fresh disasters.
