Churchill, and also Aneurin Bevan (founder of the NHS) although he was not a Prime Minister. A great Welsh man who makes me proud to be Welsh.
Churchill and Bevan were great rivals at the time (Churchill was Conservative, Bevan was Socialist) but like sweet and sour they complemented each other well. Oh to have leaders like them in power today instead of the current bunch of spineless jellyfish we have destroying this country!!!
Thatcher was an evil witch and does NOT deserve any honour. She destroyed life for the British working class and we are still suffering the effects of her actions today. Our heavy industry has been obliterated, whole communities destroyed and young people left with no future other than being slaves to the machine she created. Like a reverse Robin Hood she stole from the poor to give to the rich.

This has to be the scariest question on here in a long time, Can you imagine the size of the graffiti on these things. We have a statue to Donald Dewar in Glasgow, He was supposed to be the politician who was the first, First Minister in the so called Scottish Parliament. They have just renamed it as the Scottish Executive. Why not give it it's proper name, The Scottish Regional Council. My vote for people on a Scottish Mount Rushmore would be. Benny Lynch, Tom Weir, Billy Connolly and Andrew Carnegie. Feck Politicians, Snouts in the trough, Liars and self seeking Ba*t*rds.

Great Britain has a very long history and had a great impact
on world affairs for centuries, so the defining figures ( in the
political Arena ) were not always Prime Ministers.
So I would put 2 Queens in there
Elisabeth ( the first ) , Victoria because both of them symbolise
a whole era. Oliver Cromwell and for obvious reasons Winston
Churchill.

Pride of place would be Winston Churchill -Margret Thatcher- Benjamin Disraeli and Wilberforce might be a great choice certainly not TB Harold Wilson, or Harold Macmillan, or Jim Callaghan

If britain had a Mount Rushmore.....it would be vandalized within a week, gypsies would be all over it within the month, and a year later it would be knocked down to make way for new housing. The End

I Don't think they should be PM's cause they don't deserve the recognition, rather i think it should be certain members of the Royal Family after all they helped make Great Britain what it used to be & that is GREAT. the PM's just run it into the Ground as usual. but saying that their is an exception, ie Churchill.

As liberal as the UK has become, also considering they are taking Churchill and WWII events out of the classrooms; I doubt conservative Churchill or Thatcher would make it up there.
