Because he was unironically a terrible political and military leader who had a long career of failure and was in large part responsible for the immediate weakening and destruction of the British Empire during, pre and post war. He was however pretty skilled a myth making and had more than a bit of a hand in the post-war narrative, though it is a shame he used it to beautify himself rather than do anything useful like lay out the hostility of the US and USSR to Britain's interests and the need to reorient away from them to preserve any of the national interest or indeed sovereignty, but considering that he was personally involved in empowering the US at cost to the Empire he was in no way the man to do it.
