few notes on Churchills 'gestapo' speech

There is a large amount of evidence to support the idea that the broadcast spoken by Churchill in May 1945 damaged the conservative party, and very few pieces of evidence against.
Source C uses the conservative broadcast of May 1945 to imply that Churchill was a deceiver though the word ‘travesty’ which is to falsely represent, in this case the labour party and their policies. This would damage the conservative party as portraying the leader as a deceitful being could cause resentment from the public to the conservative party as a whole, ruining their chances of being elected. However it is unsurprising that source C has this view as Attlee (the spokesman from this source) was the labour party leader during this period and therefore opposed the conservatives which would mean that he would have purposely presented Churchill in this manner -an evil manipulator - to gain an advantage over the conservatives for a better election outcome for labour. Source D provides further evidence on the decline of Churchill and his party’s social standing as he was described as sounding ‘ludicrous rather than eloquent’ this again creates a problem for the conservative party as once more the leader is dissected negatively in the public’s eye, as ‘ludicrous’ means to be unreasonable and foolish, this image not only badly effects Churchill but also the policies and party he supports/stands for. Source E also supports the idea that the broadcast was the conservatives downfall as it quotes Churchill saying ‘Gestapo’ the German word for secret police, this was sensitive subject during this time period as it was just after the war and this comparison with the labour and Nazi party was in theory meant to discourage a labour vote from a conservatives view point however instead it showed the conservatives as a party to be detached from the public and unaffected by the such a sensitive subject proved that they didn’t understand the needs or emotions running though the country and people
