They are the same missiles as the US tests, and from the same pool. It's only like you said if you ignore all the other test launches.

That was by the Royal Navy. The US also does test launches of the missiles.

There has been 215 tests with 207 of them being successful.

The warheads are British and serviced in the UK. The missiles are serviced in the US, but apparently have a shelf life of 10 years. It doesn't sound like it can be turned off on a whim, more like the UK will have some time to seek alternative methods.

How would he do that?

Nah. Tommy Robinson and his ilk are just branches off of the BNP (which itself is a branch of the NF). The BNP in the 2000s had MEPs and a host of Councillors. It has grown thanks to social media, but it was there long before Gamergate. I'd argue the Brexit debate was the radicalisation in the UK.

How can you deserve to win without having a single shot on target?

You're also missing the contiguous expansion. Anything after the 13 colonies was a result of imperialism. Hell, one of the reasons for the Declaration of Independence was Britain's refusal to allow western expansion (Proclamation Line of 1763).

This isn't true and wasn't even when I was at school 20+ years ago. There is a lot of history to cover so it just isn't heavily focused on.

Well, they have tried to be fair.

If you enjoy the show, then watch it until you don't, because the ending isn't worth sticking around for otherwise. It will become clear that the writers were making it up as they went along, so not everything will be explained satisfactorily. I went into it knowing this and really enjoyed the show.

People losing their minds on here just because the UK is offering 150 people one year contracts to serve in the military. It's Russian and IDF model apparently. No, it's a copy of a scheme from Australia.

This isn't an English thing. The RN, AfD, and SD are all growing and have influence in France, Germany, and Sweden.

Andrew served aboard HMS Invincible as a helicopter co-pilot during the Falklands War, to be fair.

Chamberlain was all too aware of history and the devastation and loss of life in the First World War. Hence, why he was so reluctant to go to war. Also forgetting that he did declare war when an enemy marched upon Warsaw.

Not saying you're wrong, but Linehan is Irish and moved to the US last year.

You're right, I did err in my initial post and assume their guilt. I did correct myself underneath your post that they are charged and due to go to trial.

Peter, you have really got this wildy wrong. 'Slander actionable per se' doesn't mean what you think it does. It still refers to slander. Written form is libel. The hilarity is that you're accusing me of a lesser offence. Instead of insulting me, why don't you use this time to actually research this
August 20, 2025 at 8:12 PM
It's the second and third sentences. Social media posts are considered libel in the UK.

I only picked up on the pedantry due to glancing at it in your bio, by the way.

Good luck to you.
