I used to work for an older Czech gentleman who collected all sorts of shite, among them he had a huge load of operation Sealion stuff, mostly maps and the like, as you he said most of the planning was quite half hearted and the idea was to scare Britain into yielding. The thing I found interesting/funny was a huge collection of old seaside postcards. Apparently the Krauts were going around collecting everyone's holiday memorabilia and photos from the south coast in order to keep their survey maps up to date and be able to give soldiers landmarks just in case a proper invasion ever took place.
Sage for anecdote.

>>40602
The Sovs did the same. A few years back one of their invasion plans came up. Turned out the major beachhead was....Cleethorpes. Something to do with splitting the country in half. They'd been avidly collecting tat from the area for the same reason as the boxheads.

>>40603

I love how quaint it sounds when a tiny town comes under scrutiny from a massive world power.

>>40604
The idea of stroppy uncle Joe scrutinising a map of cleethorpes and skeggy and drawing red lines all over it does tickle me
>And then, Comrade, whilst the KGB take Skegness, the 57th tank division will enter Cleethorpes, make a right at the ghost train, go past Steele's chippy, avoid the arcade and proceed onwards...to victory! And Scunthorpe!

>>40601

I remember reading in the news a couple of years ago that recently de-classified documents revealed that the British plan in case of land invasion by German infantry was to surrender immediately in order to reduce losses, and conduct a Russian-style partisan campaign.

Didn't think it was worthy of a new thread, but I enjoyed this video of Gideon.

Classic.

Why is Clegg wearing a red tie?

>>40592
Well, men tend to have a number of ties in a range of colours in their personal wardrobe, and selecting one to wear on a particular day or to a particular engagement is usually a matter of whichever said man believes looks best on him under the circumstances. I, for instance, have a red striped tie for business, a blue tie for formal occasions and a white tie for social events, but these are by no means concrete roles that they have.

>>40592
He's preparing for 2015.

So let me get this right. In the recent local election the Lib Dems lost a lot of seats. In England and Wales, Labour benefited most from this. In Scotland, the Greens did.

But you think, come the next general election, all these Lib Dem voters are suddenly going to choose their polar opposite and vote UKIP?

It's true, some disillusioned Tories may indeed vote UKIP, but do you think most of them will risk Labour getting in by doing so? They may not approve of David Cameron, but I suspect they'll vote for him nonetheless just to keep Ed Miliband out.

>>40549
Prince Charles meddles enough in domestic politics as it is and by all rights I think he should have been disqualified from the position as heir the moment it became apparent he was actively communicating with the House of Lords to give his opinion on issues.

Talk about giving a dog a bad name.

>>40564
I've never really understood all the hate that goes towards Brown; he made the gaff of saving the world when in all likelihood he did and the mistake of selling gold was made at a time when it appeared that it would only continue to fall in value. Don't even get me started on him calling that bigot exactly what she was.

>>40565
To be fair he spent over a decade in power and could have easily scored himself another term if he hadn't been forced out.

If you wouldn't vote for him then you can be damn sure that at least a good portion of the people you know would

Can you clarify the details of this supposed incident?

Under some arcane constitutional arrangement, he has the right to be heard on those matters in his capacity as Duke of Cornwall. Not ideal, but that's how it is.

>>40595
>>Duke of Cornwall.

I immeidately thought of someone else.

>>40544

I think it would fit in with the rest off it better if it said "their communists ate to the right of our left".

>>40526

Oh I feel dreadful making you all fight like this. I meant to say facists not communists. Sincere apologies chaplads.

>>40554
No worries. The real apologies should be coming from tits like >>40546 who defended your inadvertently nonsensical statement.

The minimum age for alcohol consumption is in fact 5 years. I hardly think the child will be the one facing prosecution, either.

A 5 year old can hardly buy alcohol themselves.

>Not a very good argument when in the last, what, ten years, fag prices have gone up mentally, smoking indoors in public places has been made a criminal offence along with smoking at train stations, bus stops etc, every two weeks there's ideas popping up on how to infringe smokers.

Thing is though, it's legal to do and nobody cares if you do it in the street. They might be more and more discriminated against but they're allowed to do it if they like.

You're creating a false dichotomy, boyo.

>>40493
Firstly, you seem to be missing the point. Whilst there are differences between races, including things like height and intelligence (yes, I've read Jensen and seen the adoption studies), the point is that there is more variation within races than between them, which you seem to accept. You then said that this didn't matter because it was the differences between races that were more important. I asked you to explain why.

Secondly, the Human Genome project is the creme-de-la-creme of genetic study. You can't write it off because it comes from a government source, especially if you aren't going to provide any other evidence to counter it. You don't seem to like "There also is no genetic basis for divisions of human ethnicity". I think you've misunderstood what the scientists are saying. They are not saying that race doesn't exist. They are saying the genetic separation between races is very, very low and that in genetic terms only there are no clear races. Again, if you disagree with that finding, I'd like to see some evidence that supports that view, rather than just 'you can't trust the government so I must be right'.

>>40496
Actually it's mostly been a massiveincrease in mestizos and then a some asians, who are both, in fact, shorter than europeans. The black population has gone up and down.

You'd know that if you took five seconds to do a quick google search. But like most people who are ignorant fuckwits obsessed with racial equality(and I'm assuming you are, since otherwise you would have looked up the information yourself), you can't be bothered to search out information that would contradict your world view, can you?
>>40499
>the point is that there is more variation within races than between them, which you seem to accept.
Yep. I also don't see how I'm missing it.
>You then said that this didn't matter because it was the differences between races that were more important. I asked you to explain why.
I don't know how to explain to you why one race being several standard deviations smarter than another on average would be important.

Well... which would you rather life in - Haiti or Germany?
>You can't write it off because it comes from a government source, especially if you aren't going to provide any other evidence to counter it.
That's the thing. I did. Unless you're referring to being able to identify which 'race' a person belongs to via testing. If that's the case I'm more then willing to get you a link.

You also might be interested in knowing that people correctly self identify their own race 13 out of 14 times.

>>40496 here.

I hope you've been having a very nice day. Arriving refreshed from the pub, I feel I must respond to your insults, insinuations and general bumfuckery.

Actually, I did have a little searcheru after your post.

I believe it was: "demograpshic change in USA 1950 2000".

https://www.census.gov/prod/2002pubs/censr-4.pdf seemed like a reasonable resource (unless you're a retard moonbat who seems to think the government of the US works to flood it's shores with unworthy specimes of the human race for what goal, seriously?

So yes. I note that the immigrant population of the States is now 12.5% as opposed to something like 7% 50 years ago.

Using violence and coercion to take people's money and redistribute it is humane?

On what planet?

>>40485
I dunno if it's humane but it's very human.

>>40485

Are you being chained down and forced to live under the British government?

>>40487
Sure, we can all afford to just up sticks and leave. It's not like it costs anything to book a flight, get a visa, find somewhere to live, etc. and you can just walk into a high-paying job wherever you go.

>>40485
See that? Selfishness in action. "I want to keep all my lovely delicious money, give more money for me now!" It's pathetic. All that money represents is a means to quality of life, and if to raise that of the destitute it has to be taxed from you, so be it.

>>40446

Statutory rights are, in the broadest sense, technically any right guaranteed to you by law. In the narrow sense of consumer protections, see the post above.

To be honest, when you see the phrase 'Your statutory rights are not affected', you have to wonder what moron would think they were, given how whatever offer or product the phrase is referring to is so completely unrelated to them.

>>40301
HIGNFY vaguely skirts around the fair dealing thing by erecting a wafer-thin veneer of being a "news" show. That, and since the BBC do all the filming for Parliament, they basically don't give a shit. Parody in general is not protected under our "fair dealing" provisions, though it arguably should be, and there are campaigns to that effect.

Derivative work: Read this and be endarkened. http://www.copyrightservice.co.uk/copyright/p22_derivative_works.en.htm - tl;dr if you change it a little bit, the original creator holds copyright; if you change it more, then both you and the original creator hold copyright in different parts of it. All of which is why liberal licensing is a really really really fucking good idea.

>>40302

They still can't show recordings from parliament, and have in fact pointed it out on the show itself.

Not actually what you were looking for, but I made myself laugh.

Speaking of which, BBC1, right now.

>>40346

Underling? heh. Well done for showing a massive understanding of the legality of political campaigns in the UK. Nah mate, that's be his Agent. Who has to deal with all the legal and fiancial shit at rick of a hefty stretch if he fucks up. Pretty much by definition the Agent will be the most capable person in a campaign, often considerably more so than the candidate.

>>40347
>>It takes some real high-level autism to fuck up that badly.

Actually having someone with autism would make problems relating to details less likely.

>>40352
Clearly you would know.

>>40353 here.

>>40351

TBH, yes. Having...been involved...in a few campaigns, I would much rather one of the seerely autistic cunts on this board had been the agent, rather than some middle aged cunt who thinks accounting means stuffing receipts into his back pocket while in the pub.

OP's pick very much related. The agent is on the right.

>I'd vote for the NF because... they're wankers that haven't annoyed me yet.
Then why give them a chance?

OP here again,

Got my wards muddled up; I'm in Holderness so my choice was Lib-Lab-Con. I decided to spoil my ballot as the Labour candidate was a woman. IIRC, the National Front didn't come last in any wards in Hull as they were popular than the Tories.

Just seen them report on Calendar that Ed Miliband was egged; every single picture I've seen of it is utterly hilarious.

>>39598
Because they might surprise me.

I already know everyone else wouldn't.

>>40307
TVL aren't 'clearing them up' though, mate. A better comparison is the rate at which crimes are reported.

>>40309
There was a study in the independent a few weeks ago that concluded that around 90% of all crime is never reported.

>>40321
In their definition of crime, did they include littering, or similar petty crimes?

I know it sounds nit-picky and pointless, but tiny minuscule details like this are what makes most statistics complete meaningless bollocks.

>>40309
>TVL aren't 'clearing them up' though, mate.
u wot m8?

>A better comparison is the rate at which crimes are reported.
Not really. Hardly any evaders are actually reported directly to TVL, they find them almost entirely through their own methods.

>>40322
Nice bit of special pleading there, ladm8.

>>40332

You're such a crumpet.

Are you implying communism would be better? it seems you're confusing economic socialism with social (cultural) marxism and just plain broken short term policies.
