But on the basis of the evidence, I'm impressed by his leadership - and on a one to one comparison with Chamberlain - it's a no brainer - the Munich Agreement and the "peace in our time" speech by Chamberlain kind of cements it for me - and has a few parallels with certain situations across the world today, like Iran... The policy of appeasment of far right regimes on recent historic evidence (since 1930s) is not promising... But since when did we learn anything from history? That'd be a first!
