Clementine Churchill

Clementine Churchill, in Mary Soames, Clementine Churchill: The Biography of a Marriage (1979)

“I think my Darling you will have to be very patient - Do not burn any boats - The P.M. [ H. H. Asquith ] has not treated you worse than Ll. G has done, in fact not so badly for he is not as much in your debt as the other man, (i.e. Marconi).* On the other hand are the Dardanelles. I feel sure that if the choice were equal you would prefer to work with the P.M. than with LI. G.”

Clementine Churchill

It's true that when association ceases with the P.M. he cools & congeals visibly, but all the time you were at the Admiralty he was loyal & steadfast while the other would barter you away at any time in any place. I assure you he is the direct descendant of Judas Iscariott [sic]. At this moment altho I hate the P.M, if he held out his hand I could take it, (tho' I would give it a nasty twist) but before taking Ll. G's I would have to safeguard myself with charms, touchwoods, exorcisms & by crossing myself -<p> I always can get on with him & yesterday I had a good talk, but you can't hold his eyes, they shift away -<p>You know I'm not good at pretending but I am going to put my pride in my pocket & reconnoitre Downing Street.

Letter: Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire, 30th December, 1915
