    Jesus Christ what happened to the men that ran up the beaches with my grandfather? What happened to Keep Calm and Carry On? What happened to the men, women and children that suffered the Blitz?

    The best thing Starmer can say is he’s the Chamberlain of our time. Chamberlain was trying to avoid another war, which was a sincere effort, but that’s the best comparison.

    The less charitable conclusion is that the Brits don’t have the minerals. In 39 they took on a gorilla because they were honoring an agreement with Poland. Today they can’t even say a disparaging word about a paedophile conman violating international law and threatening their erstwhile allies.
