26 Comments on UK Govt: Lockdown Likely to Last 12+ Months
Churchill
“When Napoleon lay at Boulogne for a year with his flat-bottomed boats and his Grand Army, he was told by someone, “there are bitter weeds in England.” There are certainly a great many more of them since the British Expeditionary Force returned.
So I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our Island Home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government-every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation.
The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.
Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail.
We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
We shall fight on the seas and oceans,
We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
We shall fight on the beaches,
We shall fight on the landing grounds,
We shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
We shall fight in the hills;
We shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”

It should be interesting seeing just how much these European’s will take.

“And some (if not many) see us as offspring of European and distant relatives who had left for a new Continent way beyond the high seas, never to be seen again, except for some Spiritual bind that has kept us sleeping in the same House for Centuries.”
It is this link. that Centuries later keep us in the same House, withseparated families, friends and New Americans that can never shorn away our brothers and sisters of of Europe.

Wow…..it’s like we all discovered the U.K. face down in a puddle and we’re poking it with sticks.
@ Brad there were riots today in England over the lockdown. In Berlin and Frankfort there have been demonstrations met with a very harsh response by the Stasi Merkel government. Merkel won’t break up moslem riots and gang rapes but will use batons and water cannons on citizens. Now all the traditional Christmas and New Year events are cancelled. People are pissed.
@Brad, I predict the Euro-Peons will just roll over and accept their fate. Except Eastern Europeans.

I’m firmly in your camp. They are good at it. Lot’s of practice. I hope we do better before December 14th.

You may see 1 in 10 of the German protests in the news. For more follow the Alternative für Deutschland party or any AfD party member on Facebook. I prefer Ronald Gläser from Berlin. Don’t bother with any version, including English, of Der Spiegel. It’s a corrupt leftist rag.

Nothing brings fear to the Europeans like a bass boat from California being towed by a chevy with a Japanese diesel in it…..and a two week layover at a casino in Branson MO …..

I’d like to carpet bomb the UK…with Liberator pistols, or a modern equivalent.

Al, I’ll give you 5 bucks if you poke the bloated carcass in the eye.
Some of us think it’s still……alive.

“I’d like to carpet bomb the UK…with Liberator pistols,”
Why. They turned them all in once. You don’t think they’ll do it again?

Thank Him.

Through a special program, I was armed while off base with a Berretta .380 pistol during my time in the UK with the USAF. That was back in the mid 70’s. Not even UK law enforcement knew it. It was the height of the Cold War and a lot was going on that was never revealed.

UK and Europe are locking down their citizens, to keep the hate crimes against them to a minimum, maybe. I bet those governments don’t go after the ILLEGAL squatters.
And they have CCTV everywhere, so no need to have neighbor tell on neighbor.

Perhaps that is what the Democrats are doing in locking America down. Now we are out of the way for full emplacement of domestic rioting terrorists and criminals.

nobody cares anymore because the euro-weenies are the ones who came up with the Universal Basic Income scam where everyone sits at home while living off the grubbermint dole for life.
It is their dream come true, so I do not see this ending, ever.
The flu has been with us for around 180 years so I imagine the lockdown just might end 200 – 400 years from now the way most governments function since summertime temps that kill the virus means nothing anymore.

This is going to be real hard on their Muslims.

Sure, but not all of them. There are still some good guys left. Maybe enough of them, maybe not, but making the tools available might be the only way to find out.
