For the last few years already, the British Minister of War, Churchill, has been resorting to every means, lawful and, still more, unlawful, from the point of view of the English laws, to support all the White Guards against Russia, to supply them with military equipment. This man hates Soviet Russia with all his heart. (October 1920.)
Churchill, who is pursuing a policy similar to that pursued by Czar Nicholas Romanov, wants to fight and is righting, and is completely ignoring Parliament; he boasted that he would mobilize fourteen states against Russia – this was in 1919 – he would take Petrograd in September and Moscow in December. He was a little too loud in his boastings.
... The dictatorship of the proletariat is better than the dictatorship of Churchill (which is concealed behind the signboard of bourgeois “democracy”).
(All quotations from Lenin on Britain)
