D Day

[Dee-M-See]

75 years ago Britain was fighting to get into Europe
now 75 years later Britain is fighting to get out
a bit ironic!

[Canary42]

That's the quitters for you.

[jno]

79 years ago Britain was fighting to get out...

[Hopkirk]

Not a fair comparison

[Peter Pedant]

// 75 years ago the US was fighting to get into Japan
now 75 years later the US is fighting to get into China
a bit ironic!//

or is it that Pres Trump cant tell one asian from another?

[andres]

Put another way--75 years ago they didn't want us and now 75 years on they don't want to let us go!

[Jackdaw33]

What a stupi

[Jackdaw33]

I was going to go to say that 75 years ago we invaded Europe to free ourselves from Nazi tyranny. Job done. our services are no longer required.

[ToraToraTora]

what a silly post. 75 years ago we were fighting to liberate Europe from tyranny, we are doing the same again today. The main difference is that 75 years ago the government and opposition were on our side.

[ToraToraTora]

BA right there ^^^

[ToraToraTora]

I'd stick to Emmerdale if I was you.

[Gromit]

I thought the problem was, the Government have given up on fighting to get out of Europe.
May’s white flag was deployed at the earliest possible opportunity.
We’ll all have to speak (and post) in German soon.

[Zacs-Master]

i think comparing the tyranny of the Nazis to the EU is rather facile and not a little insulting.

[Gromit]

We have seen the acronym VBQ been deployed a couple of times today. I have never seen it before, but I am guessing Vichy British Quislings. Am I right, am I ?

[ToraToraTora]

canary is the expert gromit.

[Gromit]

Fair enough Tora.
I think Quislings is more insulting, but it’s your acronym.

[ToraToraTora]

that's 80% of our MPs gromit.

[Gromit]

To be honest Tora, I agree with you.
I despair.
We could do with a bit of voter anarchy, but I fear we will just get more apathy.

[ichkeria]

130,000 voter registration applications on deadline day.
