If the above link does not work, Tony who knows about these things has suggested this one (I have not tried it yet):-

…but I am sure all you techies out there can either hear it directly form the link, or find some way of getting it legitimately.

ITEM:- Thanks to Tony. This above link works! (See his comment below.) But I feel short-changed after all as it is only the keywords from sort of “let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties….” etc. I really wanted the whole thing which I am sure exists somewhere. Anybody out there in the commentariat who can help us here?

As a scientist, I liked the bit about the life of the World moving into the “broad sunlit uplands”, and not being illuminated by the “Lights Of Perverted Science” - I am sure Churchill would have been appalled, had he lived to be 140 or so, by what’s currently going on to pervert Man’s knowledge of, and views about the future of, planetary climate trends.

I should point out that nobody ought to think of us as “getting at” the German people in this matter. The poor buggers were cleverly brutalised under the thumb of a clever leftist madman with no regard for the relaity of human relationships; you could say the same about us under either Tony Blair or Gordon Brown - or, if in London, under the saddo leftist pig Ken Livingstone.

The point is that I believe, and I think Churchill knew, that “English civilisation”, at that time and still yet now broadly encompassed by the Anglosphere, was the actual midwife to the spirit of liberalism, and therefore also Libertarianism; a term he would not have known then, but of which he would have instantly recognised the meaning.

    Dave:

    Just delete the stuff after “.mp3″ and it should work fine.

    Best,

    Tony

    To avoid further problems, I suggest the following:

    Advance to Google:

    Search on “Churchill finest hour .mp3″

    and so on.

    You should have not trouble finding hundreds of sources.

    Good Luck with the carpentry.

    Regards,

    Tony
