I'm not a frequenter of the post-1900 threads, so I'm not sure how common thins question is, but how likely is it, and what would happen, if Lord Halifax became the PM in 1940, rather than Churchill. Halifax had been in favor of appeasement before the invasion of Poland, and was widely expected to become the PM before suggesting Churchill instead. But, what if he takes the position himself. Maybe Churchill gains a worse reputation in WWI or something, or Halifax just decides that he is up to the task. Would Britain seek a quicker end to the war, even if it means not fully getting rid of the Nazis?
