There of course are statutes in China, and even though many were destroyed all different ways over the eons, some were always, and ‘always’ in China means always, protected, whatever the wars, revolutions, and same such, and whenever damaged, repaired.

One example, that of General Yue Fei, along with the graves of his son and him, and the enemies of the people who murdered general Yue, for all of eternity, irrespective of ruling party

- Location: Qixia Hill, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province

Located at the southern foot of Qixia Hill, the Mausoleum of General Yue Fei (???) was first built in 1221, the 14th year of the Jiading Reign of the Southern Song Dynasty to memorize this great general. He was famous for fighting against the Jin regime (1115 - 1234) during the Song Dynasty (960 - 1279). The existing one was rebuilt in 1715 during the Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1911).

Right in the center is the main hall. A colorful sculpture of general Yue is set in the middle of the hall. To the west of the main hall is a yard. There are two corridors exhibiting poems written in appraisal of Yue Fei, whose tomb can be found right in the center. Aside from that, there are four sculpted figures in kneeling position, including one of Qin Hui, a treacherous court official who was ultimately responsible for the death of Yue Fei.

<<Churchill a devoted racist who believed in the superiority of the British Nation>>

Churchill very nearly screwed up WW1. First as a sea lord, several unecessary blunders, then Galipolli. He was banished to the back benches for many years because of those blunders, even with all his powerful contacts and background.

What Was Winston Churchill’s Role in World War One? | History Hit

Churchill had many detractors in the UK. For example, in the middle of WW2 he was heckled for saying "we can take it" in front of crowds of civilians who had been bombed in the heaviest hit areas like the East End of London and Coventry.

To his credit though, he made a determined early warning of the threat of the growing militarized threat in Germany. During the really dark years he flew out to meet Stalin, across Germany, in a Lancaster bomber, which was a dicey thing to do at the time.

It's really hard to think what is was like, even in the UK, what chances were there for Germany to be defeated ? It must have looked impossible.

Why the Churchill fellowship is doing all those thing is plainly ridiculous, but it's not that important, and Boris is the most ungenuine person imaginable. He is just trying to get support, nothing else. If it would suit his popularity better to criticize Winston Churchill, he would do it in an instant. He has no qualms about anything.

This was at the end of WW2.
