RE: Stalin's death. I know, I was just taking the piss.

RE: Attlee. The election is seeming more and more unlikely. *Sigh*  Maybe in volume 3 we'll get a fictional post- wa UK election in 1952 to (hopefully) go with our 1952 POTUS election. Another errant thought:  Attlee could go the way of Chamberlain, i.e., survive a confidence vote, but realize that he isn't going to build a coalition, and then step down in favor of someone the opposition can work with. Although frankly, from what little I know of Attlee's relationship with the Conservatives, he was not hard to work with.
