Winston S Churchill: We Shall Fight on the Beaches
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 апр 2008
- The great PM gives one of his most famous speeches. It starts off quite calmly but the old master builds the suspence.
Once Churchill was speaking in Parliament and was slightly muddled and incoherent in his speech. A rather unattractive lady MP on the opposite benches declared to Churchill: 'Sir, you are drunk!'. To which he replied 'Madame that may be true, but in the morning I shall be sober whereas you will still be ugly'.
"If necessary, for years
If necessary, alone"
Man, there's something really somber about those lines
true, is very eerie
That little pause after "if necessary... alone" makes that little sentence so much more powerful...
Just the British stiff upper lip. Britain was stuck alone in Europe still fucked from WW1, but still never gave in.
Not sober
"NerfSniper10": That was very witty! Even when the word "sombre" is spelled correctly, it's still phonetically identical...so your quip works either way!
When he said “Ahnyradawaweegointrytodo, thaisresolvuminmajsee government”, I became so inspired.
“At any rate that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of his majesty’s government.”
I love it when he says ahurjisbahrdarbondurger
daily bottles of champagne does that lmao
@@individualism5711 wow are u english bro?
Now i got from who Stipe Miocic learn his accent.
I swear, Churchill is the only guy who can be half-drunk, half-asleep, and *still* deliver one badass oratory that gives even me chills.
Half drunk? As a Englishman, fuck you we don’t do half measures
HALF drunk?
One and a half drunk. @@VidWatcher1701

As an Aussie who has given his fair share of shit to poms, the integrity, honour and determination from the brits during WW2 will never be forgotten. They were the light at the end of the tunnel, unwavering, incorruptible, and hard as diamonds. Respect from Aus to all our comrades of the United Kingdom, we stand by you through thick and thin.
MAN you Aussies are hard as fucking nails . Your from our cloth. And I PROMISE YOU. If you where ever in trouble the true British man would fight tooth and nail for you.. you cheating bastards
Bro Churchill was willing to let us be taken over by the Japanese
@@Amargosa2006 there was something called the Brisbane - Melbourne line during WW2, Essentially everything to the west and north of the line drawn between the two cities would have been allowed to fall into enemy hands with little to no resistance.
The idea was that Australia's vast distances and lack of water in the interior would have been used as a way to weaken the Japanese invaders before they reached the areas that were worth defending.
John Curtin the prime minister said no and the Australian war cabinet also said no, I'm not sure if it was Churchill's idea but there was Labor minister Eddie ward, an Australian who thought it should really be considered...
Nonetheless, even if it was Churchill who suggested it, that doesn't mean we cannot respect the Poms of WW2 and their sacrifices and hardships they endured as well as all allies, to make sure the world was a better place.
Also another thing to note is that during WW2 Australia was under its own command, they were not inclined to listen to the British just because we were apart of the commonwealth, we learned that lesson the hard way at gallipoli as I'm sure you know.
Wow, for two minutes and twenty-four seconds I was a British nationalist, and I'm Mexican
Thanks buddy. I'm British and support your rights for freedom and a better way of life. Stay strong and maybe the next US President will start building bridges, not walls 👍
@@maggsstuckey487 yeah let's blame the powerless.....
DEAN WATERS you guys are building walls. You’re making a hard border between Ireland and yourselves lol
@@thra5herxb12s Assuming this individual gives a shit about the united states XD. Also what the hell kinda freedom is it with so many mandatory obligations just to have the "privilege", not freedom but "privilege", to work in an economic system that is influenced by its greatest powers to harbor guaranteed success in the few at the cost of many. Where also the greatest proponents of consideration for bettering the lives those beyond the U.S. are also the most determined to cause detriment and failure of those within.
DONT GET ME WRONG.
I am not saying that the U.S. isn't one of the G.O.A.T country's in all of known history, its just really sad that this is some of the best humanity has mustered. Governments, capitalism, socialism, these aren't bad ideas but millions of greedy apes most concerned with their immediate surroundings at any one point just suck at utilizing them. Now Democracy, in terms of freedom especially, that is innately a terrible idea... literally is the bigger group threatening to use force to the smaller group if they dont do, accept, or contribute to something they don't wanna... like I mean come on "freedom"? Could be worse, still not freedom.
So moral of the story I agree, people should be able to move to where ever they please without being stopped by some imaginary boundary and instead governed by the nonaggression principle unfortunately not a single dumbass democrat or republican in power on the planet agrees with both of these simultaneously cause the avg of humanity as it turns out is terrible.
Este sí es un líder, no la pendejada esa con delirios de "presidente" que "gobierna" nuestro país.
“When Napoleon lay at Boulogne for a year with his flat-bottomed boats and his Grand Army, he was told by someone, "there are bitter weeds in England." There are certainly a great many more of them since the British Expeditionary Force returned. Sir I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government-every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation.
The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.
We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
we shall fight on the beaches,
we shall fight on the landing grounds,
we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
we shall fight in the hills;
we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”
Underrated wth
Thank you
Thanks
Gregory Smith Yes invading Britain without a fleet was a major strategic blunder. Look up battle of Trafalgar, if it was that easy he would have done it.
Gregory Smith Napoléon tried to take Britain, but the previously mentioned battle of Trafalgar literally is the reason people say “Britannia rules the waves.”, I.e. The battle was so decisive it ensured British naval dominance for just under a century. The reason Hitler invaded the Soviet Union was for oil(and other strategic resources) and to destroy Bolshevism. The reason they needed oil was because without it they couldn’t run the aeroplanes necessary to gain supremacy of the English Channel.
Who would’ve thought that 80 years later this speech would now be as relevant as ever. God speed Ukraine, I sincerely hope we can help 🇺🇦🇬🇧
yes sir
Hopefully the ghost of kyiv is real
Same here 🇺🇸
God speed, Ukraine.
Those Friday night images of that high-rise apartment building in Kiev with a huge hole in it, and of Volodymyr Zelenskyy standing OUTSIDE the equivalent of the Ukrainian White House, while Russian missiles are attacking, shall go down as indelible impressions in my mind. He was not hiding in a bunker, making himself invisible to his people. And yes, this also brought to mind to me Churchill’s defiant “we shall never surrender!” speech.
we need this man right now.

@Mr. danger this guy is from India, a simple check can confirm, a simple piece of knowledge should know he is mad, and sir I understand, but please behave yourself Mr Ben Chode.
I don't listen to Churchill's speeches because of his politics, I listen to them because he is perhaps the greatest orator that ever lived. This speech will never fail to give me chills and should be the inspiration for anyone facing a seemingly impossible task.
When I have a drink now and then. I'm forced from the back of my mind to listen to him speak. The reason being like you said cuts straight to the bone, sends shivers down my spine .. NOBODY is perfect. And the world will never agree with each other. You can even disagree with your parents , children and friends. But what we can agree on is that he was inspirational
Sorry but Hitler was objectively the greatest orator. Put aside feelings and watch his speeches. He practiced them for hours and hours a day. Notice his public speaking tactics
Perhaps the greatest speech but he really wasn’t one of the greatest orators… Hitler, MLK, Mussolin for example were all much better ‘orators’.

One of the greatest men of all time. God save the King, God save Britain, and God save the Commonwealth.
I first came to this video a few days ago as my younger sister needs to study this speech for one of her classes and wanted my opinion of it - I just wanted to listen to the speech, but my sister drew my attention to the comments asking why so many people hate Winston Churchill so much? It made me think...
I suppose it is rather easy to sit behind your computer, with at least some level of anonymity, spouting foul and vitriolic language about a man long since dead who can't argue back. A man who must have known that he was by no means perfect, yet still opened his actions to the impartial judgement of history while making extremely difficult decisions at a point in time when the entire world was in turmoil. If nothing else, that sort of decision takes guts.
I don't wish to give the impression that I think Churchill was some kind of perfect hero striding in to 'save Blighty in our hour of need' - I agree to an extent with the many people here criticising his handling of the 1943 Bengal Famine; not to mention the firebombing of Hamburg and Dresden. However, whatever his faults, Churchill was a driving force behind keeping Great Britain in the Second World War alone from the fall of France in June 1940 until the German invasion of the USSR exactly a year later.
Call him a hero, criticise him, or actively dislike and disagree with him - I do not care. You have a right to free speech, but remember, Churchill had a large hand in shaping the world we live in today and take for granted, who here can say that they have/will ever shape the future of so many? You have to give him at least some respect for the scale of what he achieved if nothing else.
Rant over - peace out people
Well said I could not put it better myself, he did have faults just like every human being, but we British owe a lot to him.
As a Brit I still get emotional over this speech and am proud and greatful to the men and woman who fought for freedom in the war!
The good women and men from all around the world does too

As a Frenchman. I have such an admiration for this man and for the British people during ww2.
We fought for millennia, we are historic rivals, but you lot saved the world. Literally. Bravery courage and honor. This I hope will never be forgotten.
I like to think if it as being like siblings lol… you fight each other all the time but if someone else insults them you both go off. I’m sure you guys would have done the same for us if the roles were reversed
There are always jokes thrown around here in the UK about the French, as I'm sure there are across the channel about us British Pig Dogs. But we all know deep down we are brothers and sisters seperated by a little stretch of seawater. I'm proud to look back and know my grandfather's generation stood shoulder to shoulder with the French covered in each others blood. Siblings playfight, but take bullets for each other ✌️

The evil that was in Germany in World War Two was not unique to Germans, and it still exists in this world.
"Even if you take our homeland, our fleet and empire's territories will still resist you." That line is so chilling yet motivational and realistic. Germany could have very well beat the island into submission, yet England still had a massive fleet and could still resist in India, Africa, and the South Pacific.
the british were to their colonies what the nazis were to the jews
England is not an island, Brtiain is however.
Or the people in India, Africa, and the south pacific would take the opportunity to avenge the decades of oppression, pain, death, exploitation, and suffering that the British subjected them to

It's like people single out whatever bad thing any historical figure might have done or said and use it to ovewrite all the objective good hes done.
It's like cancel culture but for dead people.
The two things are not mutually exclusive: you can respect and appreciate his role in facing up to the Nazi's and preventing Chamberlain's disastrous appeasement policies, BUT you can also rightfully condemn his disgraceful beliefs (as well as being a massive racist, even for those times, he literally created concentration camps as we now know them, which he built in Kenya, and he also starved 3m Indians by creating a famine). He was by no means a saint and to blindly worship him as such is ignorant.
@@tomm7833 Exactly. Most of our founding fathers has problems one way or another, that doesn't mean we can excuse it, but it's kind of something we should just accept and look at all the good they've done as well as the bad and evaluate which one was more impactful.

As a Scott, I recognize this man as the greatest war time PM through the history I have read. This is why i will be voting to maintain the Union, because my ancestors have died for the British Isles, and many that are pro independence have to, but to me there is nothing greater
My ancestors died trying to prevent the union every taking place. They where not forced to sign up for battle, they fought to defend their rightful land.
yes but after the forming on the Union we had the Scottish Enlightenment, look it up it was a very creative movement. Better together
Tell me just one thing that makes us better together & I will match it 10 fold why we are better independent.

@Elberiver11 Churchill didn't start WW1 or 2. Serbian nationalists started WW1, Nazi Germany started WW2. I reccommend YOU read some history. Britain loved Germnay trading - who doesn't? That's why they tried to be more lenient in the Paris Peace Conference. Until you can point out to me how Churchill started ANY of the above conflicts, best to just cool yourself down, pack your things and head to the nearest asylum.
Even as a German I've always admired this speech.
@J.E F Same
One of the greatest Britons to ever live. He truly “ mobilized the English language and sent it into battle.”. Makes me very proud to call myself a Englishman knowing the greats odds this man and the men he lead overcame for us today.
This speech was powerful & legendary. Especially given the stakes at the time in which it was delivered.
I'm French but when I hear this speech I feel like a British patriot. Thank God for Churchill and the brave people of England.
merci mon ami, et merci à la brave résistance française
Thank you.
May our nations forever be allies, no matter who leads us.
Not so sure India would agree with that statement
@@highgrounder if they had the education they would know it was the Japanese. Churchill said bad things about Indians but never starved them or whatever the blame is.
@@brad5426 The Japanese obviously hold some of the blame, but there was a LOT more, mainly instituted by India’s British elite. For example, the “boat denial” policies absolutely wrecked the ENTIRE fishing industry in Bengal. Along with that, the “denial of rice” policies allowed provinces to just get rid of rice that was deemed extra, and let’s just say that some hid the fact that they purposely threw away WAY more rice than was necessary. This along with war-time inflation and military buildup did NOT help.

@@Vermill "At any rate that's what we're trying to do
That is the resolve of her Majesty's government"
Maybe that's something about me not being native English speaker but I can completely understand what he's saying
"When Napoleon lay at Boulogne for a year with his flat-bottomed boats and his Grand Army, he was told by someone, "there are bitter weeds in England." There are certainly a great many more of them since the British Expeditionary Force returned.
So I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our Island Home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government-every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation.
The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.
We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
We shall fight on the seas and oceans,
We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
We shall fight on the beaches,
We shall fight on the landing grounds,
We shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
We shall fight in the hills;
We shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”

No he didn't knob head. Germany started the war by violating the treaty written after WW1, Hitler rearmed,stormed into Poland then attacked our allies in the west. Learn your history before making a comment.
It was time to say this. Churchill was a war minister, who articulated the will of our nation. The galvanisation of direct democracy in action. The honest and flawed leader, speaking directly to his employer.
you talk some shit
Elberiver11, you sir are a complete idiot...
Brings tears to my American eyes to hear Churchill's faith that America would step forward and take part in the fight. My father was picked up twice by Indiana police for passing out leaflets calling for American action against Hitler during this time.

Outstanding leader, outstanding man
I rather think he's a little crazy. They could have easily made peace with Germany, and ensure the people's safety. Even before German bombers crossed the Canal, there were many British trying to flee from the war. It is a lie that every British willingly signed up to defend the country. Also, often when government leaders visited bombed cities, they were not cheered at, no, most people were hooting at the people who were dragging them into a disaster.
Stryfe564 You're opinions are somewhat pathetic to me, I'm sick of people talking bullshit like you
Stryfe564
Are you seriously implying that Adolf Hitler wouldn't have simply built up the Kriegsmarine until it was large enough to cross the channel and launch an invasion under any "peace"?
The only reason operation sea lion never happened was that the royal navy and air force would've obliterated any landing force.. with time that would've changed.
Your view of history is that of Neville Chamberlain, treaties are worth less than the paper they are printed on.
Stryfe564 People call him warmonger but fail to remember that no response policy allowed Hitler to rebuild his army and annex quite a few countries. The whole rearmament program put a huge strain on economy and military spending was larger than in any other EU country at the time. It doesn't take genius to realize that Hitler was not going to stop because if he did, the German economy would've crashed as budget deficit was running really high.
Churchill was able to see this and understand the course of action Germany will take if no action taken to stop it and that's exactly what happened. What about peace treaty with Stalin? Did it matter when Hitler invaded Russia? What makes you think that Hitler would've honored peace treaty with Britain once Russia was conquered?
Hitler played smart, he signed treaty with Russia so Russia would stay away while he's dealing with western Europe. He miscalculated Britain's ability to defend so he wanted Britain to stay away while he's dealing with Russia. Fortunately to Britain and the world Churchill was in power and he knew what game Hitler is playing and he refused to play by Hitlers rules.
So why Churchill saw this coming while other leaders of Europe failed to see this at that time? To answer this we have to think in the context of Europe at that time. First of all the horrors of the Great war(WW I) were still quite fresh and secondly world just suffered its biggest financial crisis. Leaders simply did not wanted to get involved in another conflict and would rather try to negotiate and give a way for a promise of peace. Well we saw how that promise ended.
Stryfe564 FUCKOFF
as an asian who sucks at listening, i'm very inspired by churchill's speech. it changed my life. thank you so much churchill.
My grandad was at Normandy. It left him deaf. He was 19 and had been awake 5 days when they got from the Atlantic to Normandy. He said he would always remember the sea red with blood for his allied companions. His generation where hero’s.

He wasn’t perfect, but to me that’s what made him so relatable. Everyone has flaws, and yet, Churchill is living proof you don’t need to be a picture perfect specimen to do something great. For someone who has so many flaws of their own, Churchill is a big inspiration. And even though he was a bit rough around the edges, the very thought of the Swastika hanging over England and America terrifies me.

To face what the Brits had to face when things were at there worst, it probably helped to be drunk. Not that Churchill needed a reason.

The Nazis were supported by Italy and Hitler had staged a Psychological masterclass, by opening Vinci France to make it look like the French had switched sides, he also had the French natural resources,, as well as the German ones and other small countries.And that to the fact that Russia had also supported Germany in the invasion of Poland - This is the real picture of what was facing England, yet HE WAS STILL ERNEST and adamant

In 1943, up to four million Bengalis starved to death when Winston Churchill diverted food to British soldiers and countries such as Greece while a deadly famine swept through Bengal.
Talking about the Bengal famine in 1943, Churchill said: “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion. The famine was their own fault for breeding like rabbits.”
Mystic Strack, They were all killing each other on that continent long before that
They hate each other to this day, so sort out your own problems first before whining about Churchill

@@Enzo_Fiquet It was because of the lack of preparation by both countries being so reluctant to engage again since the savagery of World War I. if they had conviction A couple of years earlier,, like Germany had, they probably would have realised that technology had moved on to such a degree that the Ardennes was now penetrable, by a blitz.. Then they could have prepared for that and the Nazis would have got nowhere, just like if they had simply entered Germany with both armies or even just the French army, any time between 1933-1935, just like the French had done to take reparations when they were refused in the 20's - they could have removed Hitler under threat easily.
