Amidst all the hoo-haa over a survey showing British people are a bit ignorant of history (NO SHIT SHYLOCK!) I think the oddest statistic is this one:
11 per cent of the British population believed Hitler did not exist and 9 per cent said Winston Churchill was fictional
That means there are 2% of people walking around this country (more than 2 million people?) who must think the very real Winston Churchill led Great Britain through World War Two against that well-known fictional bad-guy 'Adolph Hitler' leader of somewhere called 'Nazi Germany'!? No wonder we won!
