1945 United Kingdom general election
Once the war against Nazi Germany ended in 1945, Churchill called a general election after the VE Day celebrations. (AUDIO: Churchill Victorious) His opponent was Clement Attlee and his socialist Opposition. Churchill advocated continued military activities against Japan and the newly-ascendant Soviet Union. He vociferously opposed Attlee's platform which he worried would grant dangerous levels of power to the state. His strategic advisor, "Simon Saunders", advised Churchill move away from his less popular ideas and instead focus on a domestic programme of his own. Of particular note was a dispensed speech in which Churchill compared the Opposition to the Gestapo. The Seventh Doctor reinstated these speeches to prevent changes to the timeline, claiming the outcome of the election was a fixed point in time. Churchill's approval rating plummeted and Attlee became Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Churchill blamed the Doctor for his defeat and renounced his friendship with the present incarnation. (AUDIO: Subterfuge) In the aftermath, he turned his attention to writing, including works such as A History of the English-Speaking Peoples. (AUDIO: Living History) He served a Prime Minister once more, however, from 1951 to 1955. (AUDIO: Their Finest Hour)
Prime Minister Harriet Jones likened her downfall at the hands of the Tenth Doctor following the Sycorax invasion of Earth to Churchill being ousted after the war and wondered if he was "got at" too. (PROSE: Judge, Jury, and Executioner)
