Hugh Gaitskell did NOT win that election. I saw him walk in and that stuck to my mind. I WAS rght about his being an early Tony Blair in that, as Labor Party leader, he fought to get rid of the nationalization of industry parts of the Labor platform.
But Churchill DID give me HALF of that V for Victory sign.
Would I lie to you? I was in politics!

I DO get the half of a v. Don’t know the part about Hugh Gaitskell, and what election you are referring to.
