Many consider the British victory during the Battle of Britain to be one of the defining moments of the second world war. However, while Britain's airforce was initially outnumbered 2 to 1, Britain may not have been so close to annihilation as many believe. The British were fighting on their own soil and their aircraft production outcompeted the Luftwaffe. The Germans also made several key strategic errors and were greatly disadvantaged by the Dowding system which you can find out more about in this video. However, while the British may have been relatively safe from German invasion, their victory was certainly threatened by Churchill's own cabinet. Led by foreign secretary Lord Halifax, he sought to broker peace with the Germans in May 1940. However, after a series of meetings, Churchill was able to gain the support of ex-prime minister Neville Chamberlain, narrowly keeping the UK in the war.
