Original Note:
The term "Holocaust" was not in wide use until the 60s, so it is unsurprising that Churchill never used it. In other writings, such as a 1944 letter, he acknowledged the massacre of the Jews by Germany. https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/resources/holocaust/churchills-reaction/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/feb/23/instagram-posts/winston-churchills-world-war-ii-memoirs-arent-evid/
