As we now know, however, those nights on the roof were nights when Winston knew from codebreaking that London was not the target.
When he knew that London was going to cop it, he hopped into his Daimler and had himself driven out to Dytchley, in Oxfordshire, for the night. Comparison of his desk diary, which I have, and the Air Ministry records indicate this beyond doubt. Of course, he was a magnificent orator. . . . Yours faithfully David Irving
