That's a pretty light weight article. Using Wikipedia, British losses were 544 killed, 422 wounded, 1547 aircraft lost. German losses were 2698 killed, 967 captured, 1887 aircraft lost.

Both the Battle of Britain and the planning for Sea Lion were attempts to bring the Brits to the table for peace negotiations. Since the German losses were higher then the Brits, and no peace talks ensued, I'd say Britain won.
