Re: Long Ago Advice.
Churchill was pro-empire and he was for a "united states of Europe"

"Yet all the while there is a remedy which, if it were generally and spontaneously adopted by the great majority of people in many lands, would as by a miracle transform the whole scene and would in a few years make all Europe, or the greater part of it, as free and happy as Switzerland is today. What is this sovereign remedy? It is to recreate the European fabric, or as much of it as we can, and to provide it with a structure under which it can dwell in peace, safety and freedom. We must build a kind of United States of Europe. In this way only will hundreds of millions of toilers be able to regain the simple joys and hopes which make life worth living. The process is simple. All that is needed is the resolve of hundreds of millions of men and women to do right instead of wrong and to gain as their reward blessing instead of cursing.
Therefore I say to you “Let Europe arise!”"
This was during a time when Britain still had an Empire. So of course he didn't see Britain as being a part of the new united Europe. But that of course changed and those changes were in many ways down to his decisions as a leader in WWII.
