Italians and Winston Churchill



 

 

 

 

The current plight of the Costa Concordia reminds one of a comment made by Winston Churchill.
After his retirement he was cruising the Mediterranean on an Italian cruise liner and some Italian journalists asked why an ex British Prime Minister should choose an Italian ship.


"There are three things I like about being on an Italian cruise ship" said Churchill.

"First, their cuisine is unsurpassed.

Second, their service is superb.

And then, in time of emergency, there is none of this nonsense about women and children first".
