Don't disagree with what you say, but I'd have thought what stopped an invasion of Engand / Britain was the English channel

With the Royal Navy in it and the Royal Air Force above it.

Didn't exactly stop the away fixture happening later on did it?

Can people take the WW2 stuff to another thread.

Why does everything always come back to WW2??

To be fair, at lot of what we are seeing is connected to events leading up to WW2, the war itself, and the aftermath. ;-)

Sorry it was in reply to some shitstirer and his what good has England ever done, I’ll leave it there :-(

What the various riots over the weeks have shown is that social media needs regulating.

Lies shouldn't go unpunished.

That goes for the companies themselves and those who helped spread and seed them.

The likes of Farage, Tommy Robinson and the lawyer for the police attackers should be done for deliberately lying and incitement.

Just remembered we invented football and the steam engine but I’ve just checked the points system and they’ve been cancelled out by James Corden

Oh that's alright then, if we have been invaded I guess we are OK to invade anyone we want to.

And thanks for inventing the internet, you did a nice job apart from allowing morons to get connected and vote for Nigel Fartrage and Donald Trump

vote for Nigel Fartrage and Donald Trump

surely that would be impossible ( voting for both )

Why does everything always come back to WW2??

Because people fondly remember it (perhaps mythically) as a time of close community in the face of terrible danger and evil. It's ironic that the EDL people waving the flags now have so much in common with the lot who tried to invade us in the 1940s.

I do think the police approach needs to be questioned. In Southend and Leeds they seemed to stand off completely, from people rioting. Where as last night I’ve seen videos of bystanders/ people walking through being arrested.

Obviously if you’re causing trouble or violence you deserve to be arrested and every situation is different, but the police approach seems to be a bit all over the place.

Steam engine was a jock.
