When did Winston Churchill say A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on?
Almost certainly never, using those words at least. In British English 'pants' means 'underpants', which would be a strange and inappropriate thing to say in the first half of the 20th century.
There are no well-documented quotes using the more likely 'trousers' either, which means it should be regarded as doubtful.
