Degrees have been awarded on theses on this question BUT many people believed in 1945 that defeating the Germans needed a new kind of country for heros to live in with free healthcare, cheap housing and jobs for the demobilised soldiers. The Conservatives wanted to carry-on pretty much as before the war whereas Labour were offering a new kind of country.
Winston Churchill Won!
It is the political party that loses/wins the election. The prime minister is the appointed leader of the party that wins. When a political party loses a general election then the prime minister steps down and the leader of the winning party becomes prime minister.
Churchill lost the election which was held in July 1945 and was then out of power until the next election in 1951. He retired from government in 1955 and died in 1965.

An autocrat is a self-appointed leader. In no way was Churchill self-appointed. Churchill became Prime Minister following the resignation of Neville Chamberlain in 1940, essentially chosen by the coalition government's cabinet. Although Churchill had become PM without a general election, he was selected by an elected committee. Churchill's party lost the 1945 general election which followed the war but then won the election in 1950. However, during the war, the government (and therefore Churchill) had far greater power then during peacetime. It could therefore be argued that Churchill, especially during the War, behaved in an autocratic way in the sense that there was very little to stop him doing what he wanted.
He lost the election!
The Opposition doesn't have a Prime Minister. Winston Churchill became Leader of the Opposition when he lost the election in July 1945.
based on what happened in the 2000 election, he (or she) becomes president.
Winston Churchill's Conservative Party lost the 1945 election, so in 1947 he was leading the Opposition in Parliament and still very active in politics.
