“you also have no right to fill your kids’ heads with mystical BS in lieu of real knowledge, hard-won by generations of workers.”

FC, I’ll teach my children whatever I want. You don’t like it, too damned bad for you. You current lot of Brits are certainly no example to follow.

Your country is going down the tubes faster and faster. It was at its greatest and most productive when your people worshipped God and had decent morals. Now it worships football hooligans and lives for cheap booze and meaningless sex. You’ve got not the slightest justification for telling Americans how to do ANYTHING.

Anthony Daniels (Theodore Dalrymple’s real name) nailed you lot solid in his books. I lived in the UK for some considerable time and the longer I was there, the more I felt like I was aboard a rudderless ship washing up on the breakers of Clockwork Orange land.

Your country is all but lost to the Muslims and the socialists are bankrupting you. You know it, but you don’t have the balls to stand up and fight back against it. Instead, those of you who don’t emigrate sit in the corners of your locals and mutter into your pint. As long as you’ve got your pint, it’s “I’m all right, Jack,” even though you know damned well things aren’t “all right” and they’re getting worse by the moment. You’re back to where you were under Callaghan, except this time there’s no North Sea oil and no Margaret Thatcher to rescue you.

The men who held Lucknow, overcame 40:1 odds against the Zulus at Rorke’s Drift, and saw off the Germans in the Battle of Britain would have despised you current British. They wouldn’t deem you worth of the name–and they’d be right. “Londonistaners” is far more appropriate.

Nirad Chaudhuri was right when he said Britain wasn’t worthy of a Margaret Thatcher. You weren’t then and you’re an even more degenerate shower now. Watching the Royal Navy and Her Majesty’s Government grovelling to the contemptuous Iranians only clinched what those of us who had been watching your sorry decline from afar already knew.

Now go have some Victory Gin to forget it all.
