Churchill took billions from American taxpayers you stupid twat. And we were, and are, glad to do so to fight a common enemy.

Cat check: Churchill sent a 15 page letter to US President Franklin D Roosevelt in December 1940 requesting financial aid. The US ultimately responded with the Lend Lease act which supplied $690 billion of aid to Europe in today's money. history.state.gov/historical…

London 1940. Kyiv 2026. The whole world said "never again".

What a disgusting post. Ukraine is fighting a major invasion on a 500 mile front. The largest invasion in Europe since WW2. Putin is intent to wipe Ukraine off the face of the earth, it's people's sent to concentration camps like the Crimean tartars before. Imagining cruelty. Indeed like Russia/Germany did to Poland in 1939. While you lap up Russian Disinformation about Zelensky on a daily basis. Zelensky is today's Churchill, fighting a ruthless tyrant who is firing countless thousands of drones and missiles aimed at population centres.

Your are why I Don’t vote reform Are you completely mad ? Are you pro Russian ? Don’t you see that Russia invaded Ukraine ? Don’t you see Ukrainians are fighting for their lives ? Dont you see that Russia must be stopped somewhere ?

Ben Graham confirming why decent people don't vote Reform.

Yes, the US and the Commonwealth were never asked to help.

A moronic statement! Both men led their nations during the worst times of a huge threat to their nations. Both men stood alone to save Europe from its existential threat. Both men needed to beg favours and equipment to endure their country prevailed. Both men were democrats who were plunged into an appalling situation which necessitated postponing elections. Both men will rightly be remembered by future generations for their stoicism and heroism! Churchill and Zelenskyy are very very similar in strength and character.

Ok. That’s the stupidest thing I have ever read in context of Zelenskyy and Churchill comparisons🤦🏻‍♂️Churchill not only demanded weapons from the U.S., he wanted them to enter the war against Hitler. And also, if we are comparing both of them, with all due respect to Churchill, German troops have never been 20 km from the Downing Street. As a Brit, but especially as a biritsh politician you should be ashamed of not knowing such basic historical facts.

He is doing and has done exactly what a great leader does when their country is being attacked by a brutal dictator. If your country was being devoured by a superpower, what would you want your leader to do? Negotiation with Putin means surrender and death.

Cannot agree. Zelenskyy has been a truly impressive leader throughout. Faced with overwhelming odds and an offer to be evacuated with his family, he stayed. And he remains to this day - a constant target. I wonder how many other world leaders would have stayed put in those early hours of the invasion.

"Only Finland—superb, nay, sublime—in the jaws of peril—Finland shows what free men can do." Jan 20, 1940. Churchill said this in support of Finland's fight to preserve it's freedom from Soviet invasion. I have no doubt that he'd say the same in support of Ukraine.

Churchill asked Britain to stand up to a dictator. Zelensky is doing the same. The difference? Churchill had an empire behind him; Zelensky is asking others to help his country survive. If Churchill were alive today, he’d recognize the threat posed by Putin. The real insult to Churchill’s legacy is confusing the cost of resisting aggression with a reason to tolerate it.

Actually, the comparison is near perfect and, if anything, the edge goes to Zelenskyy. His country was invaded by air AND land by a far superior force and Zelenskyy was given the option to run but chose not to. As for demands, are you forgetting what Churchill "demanded" from America and how difficult is was for FDR to find a way to give your country what it needed?

That's a very historically inaccurate statement. Do you even know your own history or are you just ignoring it to make cheap shots at Zelensky. ...oh, wait, Reform Party, now it makes sense. You have to appease your Kremlin paymasters.

People like you are inflicting huge harm upon the conservative cause 🤦

It’s truly remarkable how so many human beings are just exposing their compromised and brainwashed mentality for everyone to see. Zelensky was invaded by a dictator who hates the west. You people are hypnotized and broken.

Ooooohhh, you got a community note! Two different wars and two different scales, but Zelenskyy is leading Ukraine during its darkest hour just as Churchill led the UK through its darkest hour. Resilience. Leadership. Two different leaders and circumstances, but both with love of country.

Learn some history, particularly about the Atlantic Charter.

Zelenskyy and Churchill have many similarities. They both have/had balls of steel, they are/were great orators. One protected Europe against Nazis and the other is now protecting Europe against Fascism. One had to wake up every morning and beg America for help and eventually he got it. The other has to beg for American help but unfortunately, the US president is not very receptive at present. (Can I please ask you to be respectful and spell the Ukrainian presidents name correctly?)

Hey buddy, I'm from the United States. You SURE you want to make that argument?

Not comparing the two is an insult to Churchill's legacy.

Churchill asked for billions of dollars from America, to help protect his people, as Zelensky is doing. Get a basic education before tweeting out weak, attention-seeking nonsense.

"Comparing the two is an insult to Churchill's legacy." Comparing Zelensky. Really? Thank you for posting this. It reinforces why anyone in the UK who supports Ukraine would avoid Reform with a barge pole.

Yes they should, who the hell are you?

Thanks for confirming that Reform is pro russian, though. Very useful.

You haven’t got a clue. Churchill would sided with Ukraine without a doubt. He foresaw the evils of the USSR as accurately as he foresaw those on the Nazis. Reas some history you ignorant muppet
