My Mum and Dad.

 

After that I think I would choose Mahatma Ghandi.

To me it was Oliver Cromwell closely followed by George Orwell who although born into wealth became a working class hero . In my opinion of course .

Orwell was born in India, all be it to wealthy English parents who were not on military service.

Either Churchill or Elizabeth1 for me.
