Winston Churchill Quote

To A.P. Herbert about his first speech as a newly elected Member of Parliament:

That wasn't a maiden speech — it was a brazen hussy of a speech — a painted tart of a speech.


Collin Brooks, diary 9 December 1935


That wasn't a maiden speech — it was a brazen hussy of a speech — a painted tart of a speech.

That wasn't a maiden speech — it was a brazen hussy of a speech — a painted tart of a speech.

That wasn't a maiden speech — it was a brazen hussy of a speech — a painted tart of a speech.

That wasn't a maiden speech — it was a brazen hussy of a speech — a painted tart of a speech.
