Your thought process needs adjusting. He was just spamming. If you dont like what he posted pm or e-mail him and ask why he posted what he did.

Destroying is easy. Building takes greatness.
Brunel has a great shout but I disagree with you about Churchill. He wasn't knocking things down, rather he was trying to defend what was already there. If he was the difference between winning and losing WWII then he deserves to win this poll. My vote in the top 10 was Cromwell. Parliament rules because he won the battle against the Monarchy.

If anyone wants to find out more about the 10 Look here

Astonishingly the spoilt tart is leading. Brunel is running second.

I can't believe that Nelson and Elizabeth Mark 1 didn't get any votes.

Huh? I voted other. My girlfriend is British. She is in my opinion the greatest ever Briton to have lived. So what's the problem again?

I voted Cromwell, can't stand the idea of absolute rule by monarchy. They still have several constitutional powers too many

Mind you, the Cavaliers were better dressed...

Its got to be Newton, every time. The ghosts of Newton still pretty much governs our entire lives, and the difference he made to scientific thought is quite phenomenal.
