What about the guy who's on a basic wage and just trying to feed his family?

He could earn a basic wage elsewhere. You don't get told where to work

 

[GOULDYBOBS]

Why do you think that hasn't happened??

Nuclear deterrent maybe a huge factor dont you think?

Plus having one the world's biggest armed force (America) as our best pal may also be another deterrent.

Probably because we don't have anything of any value

Were they made to work there or did they choose to benefit from making stock that kills other people?

There but for the grace of God…

I’m not religious but the way.. Just don’t like using the word ****

Especially

Aww...she only started yesterday. She doesn't even know what they were making there. They told her it was a cake factory.

So if the country gets invaded do you think they should ward off the attackers with Judo?

Sticks

 

[TinFoilHat]

I really thought this would get more coverage than it has.

Even the US media aren't giving it the rolling news treatment.

Anything announced on the prelim investigation on the cause?

UK Sovereign territory? 1982

When was the last time Ukraine were invaded pre 2014?

June 1941 I believe :-)

When's the last time we were invaded?

We are currently getting invaded aren't we. Fighting aged men.















It was a joke... just a joke,stay calm

It is a horrible tragedy. There have been a few on home soil during the first and second world wars. The worst is said to be the Fauld explosion in Staffordshire, causing the deaths of at least 70.

Don't have to go as far as that there was a huge death toll in Ashton in 1917, I remember my great uncle telling he was walking back from the bakery when he was blown off his feet and the windows in the street shattered and that was 3 miles away in Duky. Suppose some tosser might think they deserved to die for having the temerity to make TNT for the war effort as well as earn a living.

I feel sorry for her, she worked 20 years in old Trafford for the scum , got made redundant by tax dodging scruffy jim and decided to go to the US of A for a better life and now this! Some people just can't get a break.

Maybe not in your world but in the real world, yes they do. when the alternative is shoveling shit.

The frightening thing is that after the explosion they said 'aye up, Ducky looks much better now'
And to this day, they never repaired nowt.

I've worked many industries and yet never made anything that would kill others. I live in Manchester

FWIW the last time Britain was invaded - ie serious numbers of enemy boots on the ground - was in 1797. My wife's Welsh ancestor took some of them prisoner (frogs led by a yank)

Didn't say anyone deserved to die. Perhaps a yank forum might have more sympathy. They must need the munitions to bomb some mud huts and then make a movie about how sad it made them feel

There's a reason Hitler didn't invade. The Luftwaffe wasn't defeated by asking them politely if they would stop coming over here.

When you go about saying shit like "ive got no sympathy for people that make weapons of destruction" - human beings who are just genuinely trying to earn a living, you deserve the shit that comes your way.

I served in the armed forces and in 2002 I have been in a chain of personnel that caused us as a nation to use those weapons of destruction.

Therfore me and you are on a totally different page.

So I'll just leave it there.

Fair enough. Thanks for your service

Half bricks

Don’t be daft, should be a strongly worded letter.

Preferably incoherent

Well you’re wrong but fine.
