This boat proves it wrong. ๐ถ๐
In 1992, road workers in Dover cut into a riverbank and found her. 9 metres of oak, stitched with yew, waiting in the silt for 3,500 years.
Around 1,500 BC, British boatbuilders on the Kent coast launched a vessel built to take the English Channel. Oak planks shaped with bronze tools. Sewn together with yew withies, the way our shoemakers still stitch leather. The seams sealed with moss and beeswax.
She worked the crossing. British tin went south. Continental bronze came north. Bronze Age Britain was trading with Europe in its own boats, before anyone in Italy had built a city called Rome.
Then she was lost in the silt of the Dour river-mouth, where the modern town of Dover now sits on top of her. In September 1992, workers digging the new A20 found her. The yew stitching still intact. The moss and wax still sealing the seams.
Britain's oldest sewn-plank seagoing vessel. Launched from a British shore, year after year, before Stonehenge was finished.
You were told the British were isolated until the Romans came. They were crossing the Channel in their own boats 1,500 years earlier. Never primitive. Never alone.

Farmer Charles Goadby @thisfarmlife has a few home truths for Rachel Reeves announcement that she will cut red diesel duty. The reality is that the government has been cashing in on fuel taxes from extra VAT revenues due to the rises in fuel prices during the Iran War.

๐จJESS PHILLIPS - NAMED AND SHAMED - INSIDE RAPE GANG INQUIRY REPORT
The inquiry makes clear:
Jess Phillips maintained a PUBLIC SILENCE on the ethnic and religious patterns of the gangs while girls in her constituency suffered.
"Evidence shows Labour politicians prioritised avoiding โfar-right empowermentโ narratives and ensuring so-called โcommunity relationsโ over protecting victims."
'Jess Phillips, appointed Safeguarding Minister, had much to do with his show of contempt by the Labour Party. Survivors resigned from her victim panel in disgust, condemning the process as a sham. Phillips apologised for delays, but retained the full backing of Sir Keir Starmer. Under her watch, ethnicity recording remains patchy and the anti-white aspect of these horrendous crimes continues to be downplayed'
'What the Tartan Army have done is Boston is open Scotland up again to another part of the world' ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
Jim Lever, originally from Greenock, has played with his band in The Black Rose in Boston since moving here eight years ago.
He says the Tartan Army have made him 'unbelievably proud' to be Scottish.
The Scottish fans have also 'drank the pub dry' for the first time in its 50-year history.

Mike Benz tells Joe Rogan: "The British government conspired with the Biden administration to create, to conjoin the US, UK censorship industrial complex."

If Rupert Lowes Rape Gang Enquiry is not front and center of your reporting tonight and in the morning we will know you are comfortable with the mass gang rape of British children in the name of Islam.
