You have your dates wrong. Hitler denounced Hess after the betrayal by
Churchill.

Hitler gave orders to shoot Hess down before he left German air space.


There is no way Hess would have traveled to Scotland without
an invitation by Churchill and the express wishes of the Nazi party.

Do you have any proof of any of this nonsense?

There should be some documentation somewhere and I very much doubt that
file would still be secret.


Churchill never wavered in his opposition to the Nazis, change your
medication
there's a good chap.

Churchill had only been in office for a few weeks when Hess flew over.
A big loss does not make a new leader's job secure. Hess may have been
trying to conspire with Churchill's rivals - Chamberlain (more
appeasement) or Lord Halifax (negotiated settlement). Either being
in power would have made it easier for Germany to attack the USSR.
