One day in the late 1940s, Prime Minister Clement Attlee and his predecessor Winston Churchill found themselves standing together at the gents’ urinals at the House of Commons.
Churchill immediately moved away to the urinal furthest away from Attlee.
“What’s the matter? Feeling stand-offish today Winston?” asked Attlee.
“No,” said Churchill. “Frightened. Every time you see something big, you want to nationalise it.”
