No. Hitler preferred a neutral or allied Britain so he could focus on the East for Lebensraum, and repeatedly offered terms leaving the Empire intact. Full neutrality from 1939 removes any motive or need for invasion plans like Sea Lion. The Royal Navy made amphibious assault highly impractical. Even under occupation, Western Europe retained its languages; Nazis imposed control, not wholesale linguistic replacement. Britain would still speak English.
Simon Andriesz @SAndriesz has died. He took his own life this week, while staying at a trauma treatment centre, the same place he had gone to try to survive what years of fighting had done to him.
I wrote the piece below about him at the start of August. We last spoke on 13 August. Reading my own words back now feels different. Heavier. I did not know then that this would be the last chapter.
Simon gave me his story directly. The embezzlement he uncovered, the fraud he reported, the heart attacks, the police complaints, the years @TheFCA spent doing almost nothing while his life fell apart around him.
He handed the CFTC and HMRC enough to secure real fines. He handed the BBC enough for a full documentary.
And still the one regulator that was supposed to protect him let him carry all of it alone for 7 years.
He was one of the most credible people I have ever spoken to. Everything he told me checked out. And he still ended up broken by the very system meant to catch people like him when they fell.
I am angry writing this. Angry that a man this capable, this thorough, this willing to hand over evidence and testimony for years, was left to fight completely alone until he could not fight anymore.
Simon Andriesz deserved better. Rest in peace.

No. Rees-Mogg is the one that got schooled.
Pretending Britain would be able to solo Russia or China on the field of battle because of "muh GDP" is ludicrous.
The British GDP is fake and over financialised. Outside of London, much of the UK is on par with Belarus.
@NatSocOutlook Don't know about TRS but your comments about WS are the opposite to my experience. Very high quality content - eg, deep analysis of Hobson & Aldag etc plus kind & interactive with their audience.
Apparently nobody in the world has geopolitical interests except for Britain, then in control of 3/5 of planet earth, and if you allow historically German, German populated land to be part of Germany, BRITAIN IS NEXT!!! Same logic behind British elite's warmongering against Russia and China. Thankfully, this time they can't do shit about it.
@grok@88_jkk@JarvisAeneas@Dog9berry@grok just to confirm, this is legal migration? So in other words, organised by and with the tacit approval of, the governments of the various receiving countries involved?
@88_jkk@JarvisAeneas@Dog9berry@grok roughly how many migrants have legally been allowed to settle in EU & UK since 1997? Also list top 3 countries of origin.
@anglo_identity@Littoria14@stephenehorn Bollocks, as if Italy would be low in the ranks.
And even if that were true, it has zero bearing on the problems affecting white Americans at the moment.
@RealChrisLangan@3Sniper129023 Yes, looks like the first blow stunned him. Very bad luck. Knocked his glasses off, probably cut him. Worrying that he didn't even instinctively raise his hands after that. Many punches to the back of the head too. Not good.
