RayC Posted July 17, 2024 Posted July 17, 2024 The US will be the butt of a joke from the UK shortly: She's called Liz Truss.
retarius Posted July 17, 2024 Posted July 17, 2024 Don't worry JD the Brits have to get the codes from American before they can fire any of their nukes. I wonder why they are spending over 1000 billion pounds to update the weapons when they can't even fire them independently.

The US government might decide to levy a fee to access the systems needed to fire Trident, or state Europe, including the UK, needs to pony up to pay their fair share of the US nuclear shield, transforming NATO from an Alliance to a protection racket. 1

nauseus Posted July 17, 2024 Posted July 17, 2024 7 hours ago, Marsupienemi said: What he said is a warning about the situation in GB and in general in Europe. Sweden who was the most peaceful country with the highest standard of living in Europe is on fire since these fluxes of "refugees". I recently saw a report in England with demonstrations by Afghans with known terrorist leaders, who each time provoke the police a little more in order to trigger clashes. Germany, France, the Netherlands, Denmark etc. are in the same situation. This remark is a way of sounding the alarm. Agree, a warning for the future, not right now. I also think the post headline to be misleading and that Vance's comments could have been worded much better.

Weren't Muslims invading Europe for hundreds of years before the crusades. You wanted to explain immigration. It was the British who needed the indian population in both world wars, then wanted them to come to the UK to work after the war. This is only going back 60-80 years. So there will be family links to have a larger population of that community. Eg, France basically looted and colonised alot of Africa, so you will see many links to African nations France. It's all a load of nonsense anyways. Trump didn't ban any muslims like he said anyways, is all a bit of xenophobic baiting. 1

The current major expense is for 4 Dreadnought class submarines to replace the existing Vanguard boats. They are expensive but do not cost 1000 Billion. More like 32B. 2

Mass bombing, a desperate battle to keep the Atlantic convoy routes open. Yes you supplied a lot of kit, for which we payed cash, and then when the countries cash ( and gold reserves) had been used up, you gave us credit, which we finally finished paying back in 2006. The US played a significant part in the allied victory over Germany. Not exactly saving our ass though! 1 2 1

Reckon the Soviet Union did a lot of UK ass saving too, and so did the other 20+ nations who fought on the side of the Allies. I'm sure the Brits will be forever grateful for the US sacrifices, and for the sacrifices from all the other nations. Except their ex-Prime Minister, who left the latest D-Day commemoration early for self-serving reasons... What a shame that you forgot to mention that the Soviet Union was a German ally right up until 1942, when Hitler stabbed them in the back and declared war on the Soviet Union. quote "Reckon the Soviet Union did a lot of UK ass saving too". Can you explain how you came to that conclusion? Especially in the light of the UK and the US supplying the Russians with weapons, vehicles, uniforms, medical supplies, food, oil etc through the Artic convoys and the Arab Gulf routes. Or how Allied seamen whose ships were sunk were interned by Russia, or how Allied aircrew were also interned by Russia when their aircraft were shot down or crashed while attacking German targets? 1

Perhaps he is alluding to the fact that, after Hitler's betrayal, the Russians kept the German forces split. The Nazis were bogged down on the Eastern Front unable to commit all of their forces to Western Europe, and where, potentially, the success of the Dunkirk landings and subsequent offensive might have had a diametrically different outcome. Some 20 million Russians lost their lives in defence of their Motherland; German troop losses amounted to hundreds of thousands of men, not to mention the volume of materiel lost or destroyed. 1

Diametric dribble. The allies landed successfully in Normandy, France, in 1944. Dunkirk was the site of the British and allied evacuation of France, four years earlier. 1
