@TakeThatClouds Cars are more manoeuvrable in reverse as it makes it rear wheel steering pivoting around the fixed axle where as going forwards the car steers from the front and the fixed axle “cuts the corner”
@Bushra1Shaikh Well not exactly, Northern Europeans are virtually the same genetically as native britains, yes we were invaded colonised and interbred but we are virtually the same peoples. Its like if Kenyans and Ugandans had children they are almost identical genetically
@JohnapIdris1@JackRyanTurner I think the key thing to being English is are your parents English are your grandparents English great parents etc. if the answer is yes you are English & if foreigners can only become British citizens & not English then over time English will become a homogenous bloodline
@JohnapIdris1@JackRyanTurner It’s a tricky one isn’t it, I’m English I’ve traced my lines back as far as I can and every generation is English BUT my DNA shows some Viking, German & Norman DNA also the area I live was colonised by vikings & my surname & the name of the village I live in is Viking origin
@RantsOfMadMan@CrossAndCaptial I’m English & I did a DNA test.
I’m 12% Denmark Norway Sweden (probably Viking). 6% German (Anglo Saxon?) 1% Portuguese 🤷🏻♂️ and the rest is made of different UK regions West Midlands being the majority. If you did a DNA test i can guarantee you are a mongrel baby yourself
@CrossAndCaptial To be English 🏴 should be ethnically as in only if the DNA is English but you can be foreign and become a British citizen but you can’t become English or Scottish etc
@LeContempIateur Struggling doesn’t mean it’s beaten. Russia could sustain its losses for many years yet. The Russian way of war has always been the slow grind of attrition and outlasting the enemy at enormous human cost
@OllyParramore So the same boats are doing multiple runs ferrying migrants across?! Wtf the RNLI and Gov are working with the smugglers there’s no other explanation to this. “Smash the gangs” yeah right them fuckas are part of it
@Anglothule Russia certainly isn’t winning … they’ve lost control over several key regions in Ukraine in the last few months which cannot be classed as winning when you are losing the ground you had previously taken and now Ukrainian strikes are hitting deep into Russia on a regular basis
@TheNorfolkLion Statistics show that is really not the case . A woman in a room with 1000 Afghans is something like 20x more likely to be raped than if she was in a room with 1000 British men.
@TARSRel0aded Russia started a fight and is now being bloodied because the Ukrainians are fighting back spectacularly. Most of the weapons Ukraine is using are not NATO weapons they are long range drones they build themselves
@euromaximal I don’t say this as a way of justifying Russias invasion in anyway just that It was a valid point. The USA would not allow Russia to set up a military base in Mexico for example. They would invade and take Mexico by force before they let Russian missile systems move in
@euromaximal The argument I think was that’s expanding NATO meant missiles & nato forces on Russias doorstep that would effectively mean Russian ICBM’s etc could be targeted & shot down on launch effectively neutralising much of Russias nuclear deterrent.
@PWestoff He could level it with nuclear armed Oreshniks but the prevailing wind would blow the fallout over Moscow . Conventional Oreshnik is a quite useless as a weapon
@ehannah0 watching the Gov start punishing and forcing Brits to go to war whilst simultaneously letting in men from other countries for apparently fleeing wars and given them resources and shelter 🍿
