Neville Chamberlain, UK Prime Minister, 1937-1940.
Winston Churchill eulogised Chamberlain in the House of Commons, three days after his death in November 1940:
“Whatever else history may or may not say about these terrible, tremendous years, we can be sure that Neville Chamberlain acted with perfect sincerity according to his lights and strove to the utmost of his capacity and authority, which were powerful, to save the world from the awful, devastating struggle in which we are now engaged. This alone will stand him in good stead as far as what is called the verdict of history is concerned.”
