He met staff and advisors, read cables, correspondence, communiques, newspapers, government reports, intelligence data. He chaired meetings of numerous committees, the most important being the War Cabinet. Churchill wrote his own speeches, corresponded and met with world leaders, most importantly Stalin and Roosevelt.

“Never must we despair, never must we give in, but...the policy of detachment or isolation, about which we have heard so much and which in many ways is so attractive, is no longer open. If we were to turn our backs upon Europe, thereby alienating every friend, we should by disinteresting ourselves in their fate invite them to disinterest themselves in ours.” —WSC, 2 May 1935
