  Being that post war Britain has defined itself as Britain’s greatest hour was defeating the Nazis, this isn’t a wise thing to say.

  This is a weak point of the British Far Right. They can’t wrap themselves up in the Union Jack and claim to honour Churchill, while actually being Nazis. It’s a weakness of us those opposed to the far right need to be pointing to a lot more.

  I’m sure Farage would have been better off. Not sure the country would have been.

  Reform really can’t keep quiet about their Nazi tendencies can they, they are all too thick to shut up.

  It would certainly have been more comfortable for all the upper class supporters of Hitler

  I was under the impression that the UK didn’t have a choice in that one

    Then you need to dramatically reread your history. The Nazis were pretty ready to share the world with the British Empire and absolutely would’ve preferred to not get into it with them anytime soon but Britain decided it was going to do total war to prevent the Nazis overtaking mainland Europe.

      They said something similar to the Russians.

    We would never have had that stupid Brexit without hm, so fair to say Lemmy is right.

  What is it with the rise of the spineless morons at the moment?

    How dare you? Spines are one of the few bones snakes DO have.

    The fact that so many people listen to these cunts is disheartening

      This kid was barely a wiggle in a nutsack when 9/11 happened and then all the other events that followed. These little twats have been handed everything and had to earn nothing. The only thing we should be giving them is daily ass beatings in public.
