Britain is lost..

One in four Britons don’t believe wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill existed, according to a recent survey.

Churchill is compared to Florence Nightingale and Sir Walter Raleigh, seen by many survey respondents as a mythical person, the London Daily Mail reported Monday.

The survey, conducted with 3,000 respondents to test their general knowledge, reported other historical figures such as Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi, Cleopatra and the Duke of Wellington were made up for books and films, the Mail reported.

The survey, by UKTV Gold, also found that Sherlock Holmes was a real person.

Young Britons under 20 lack a basic historical education according to the survey results, historian Correlli Barnett told the Daily Mail.

“This suggests a complete lack of common sense and respect for our greatest heroes of the past,” Barnett said.

This is what happens when schools start worrying about be politically correct. They teach ’bout “fweewings” and how to put a condom on a bananna. Curriculums focus on revisionist history with multicultualist attitudes that place one’s home country (ya know, the one created and run by old, white, aristocrats) beneath all others in an attempt to placate perceived wrongs.

It was good knowing you Great Britain, hate to eventually lose an ally..

    And there is much more to this:From Yahoo:

    Britons are losing their grip on reality, according to a poll out Monday which showed that nearly a quarter think Winston Churchill was a myth while the majority reckon Sherlock Holmes was real.

    The survey found that 47 percent thought the 12th century English king Richard the Lionheart was a myth.

    And 23 percent thought World War II prime minister Churchill was made up. The same percentage thought Crimean War nurse Florence Nightingale did not actually exist.

    Three percent thought Charles Dickens, one of Britain’s most famous writers, is a work of fiction himself.

    Indian political leader Mahatma Gandhi and Battle of Waterloo victor the Duke of Wellington also appeared in the top 10 of people thought to be myths.

    Meanwhile, 58 percent thought Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s fictional detective Holmes actually existed; 33 percent thought the same of W. E. Johns’ fictional pilot and adventurer Biggles.

    Megan if you’re from Britain you should be shamed. Do you have a viable reason why this poll came to the conclusions it has come to???

    Since multiculturalism has creeped in schools, universities and in almost ever aspect of life in Britain, the education has gone down the hill. :cry:

    ok, ok guys, i should be shamed? Bit harsh. I for one hold no responsibility for the 3,000 dumbasses [hopefully thats it haa] that incorporate this country, as iam sure you dont for yours.
    A viable reason could be that UKTV happened to interview 3,000 low-lifes with small minded brains and little knowlegde or education of British history but whether thats realistic.. i doubt it.
    So, yea no viable reason here. Apologies.
