No socialist government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp or violently worded expressions of public discontent. They would have to fall back on some form of Gestapo, no doubt very humanly directed in the first instance.
Winston Churchill

I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
