Indeed. I just cannot abide arguments that fly in the face of a century of military and historical scholarship, both at home, in Europe, and here in America.Everyone who played their part in the overcoming of Nazi Germany gets credit from me. Regardless how big or small it was.
I’m certainly not going down the road of trying to play down what each country brought to the table.
It was a collective effort and for that we should all be grateful.
Yeah, it’s fair to say I’m not a huge fan of patriotism.Indeed. I just cannot abide arguments that fly in the face of a century of military and historical scholarship, both at home, in Europe, and here in America.
Then again, I see ‘patriotism’ as an inherently dangerous concept and practice, so I would find fault with aggrandising England’s or America’s role in defeating the Nazis.

They didn't have a choice but to allow free passage. In no way were they complicit in supplying iron ore to the German war machine as you incorrectly implied.Norway allowed free passage through its waters i should have said people resisted valiantly in many countries many didn’t.
As expected, a man has been arrested after the Southport protest because police recognised him after he was involved in a domestic abuse case earlier that same day. The lot of them are violent toerags who contribute fuck all to this world.You'll notice as well that 99% of the crowd in Southport tonight is made up of men. As I said, this isn't a protest and it's not a rally, it's just a riot populated by rage-filled dickheads who'd normally be battering their wives but tonight have (luckily) decided to take it out on a copper who can batter them back with a shield and a baton instead. But say anything to this lot about the Southport attack being an example of femicide and they wouldn't stand up for the women and girls in their family, they'd tell you you were talking shite and try and knock you out. But that's all this is, male rage begets male rage.
I referred to England because that was what seemed to be the prevailing focus of the discussion. It was not even just Britain, but nearly the whole of what is now the commonwealth that actually collectively contributed.Britain made the contribution not just England, easy mistake to make though. The Americans jumped into the war after they were invited by the Japanese and the Germans declared war on them.
But the initial point is that there are always a minority of people who hate this country enough to denigrate anything we do for the good, there's always an if and a but.
To be fair, Brian Spencer brought a lot of enjoyment to a lot of people.As expected, a man has been arrested after the Southport protest because police recognised him after he was involved in a domestic abuse case earlier that same day. The lot of them are violent toerags who contribute fuck all to this world.

And I agree there will always be a minority of people that will denigrate contributions of any group to whatever success. Just as there will always be a minority, driven by the dangerous nature of “patriotism” that will aggrandise contributions of a nation whilst ignoring the harm carried out on it’s behalf.
