As a historian with a focus on 20th-century British politics, I can provide some context on Winston Churchill's approval ratings. It's important to note that the concept of "approval ratings" as we understand it today, with regular polling of public opinion, was not as prevalent during Churchill's time, especially during World War II. However, we can speak in terms of his popularity and the public's perception of him.
Winston Churchill is best known for his leadership during World War II, from 1940 to 1945, and particularly for his role as Prime Minister from 1940 to 1945 and again from 1951 to 1955. His highest approval or popularity is often considered to have been during the war years, especially in the immediate aftermath of key victories such as the Battle of Britain and the D-Day landings in 1944.
Churchill's "finest hour", as he called it, was arguably during the early stages of the war when he rallied the British people with his speeches and steadfast resolve. His approval was not based on polling data but on the historical narrative and the sentiment of the time.
After the war, Churchill's popularity waned somewhat due to various political and economic challenges faced by Britain. However, his leadership during the war has been consistently remembered and celebrated, contributing to his enduring legacy.
