100 year old WWII veteran - winning the war wasn’t worth it
“My friends gave their lives for what, the country of today?”
“The sacrifice wasn't worth the result”
So fucking true. Great to hear it straight from his mouth. True patriot.
Millions dead only to turn Britain into a third world shithole.

"I'm sorry, the sacrifice wasn't worth the result..."
Nothing sums up modern Britain better than a WW2 veteran lamenting what our country has become, being patronised by a woman who married an architect of Blair's government and a man who said yesterday that he wants Sharia Law.

CBS Arena heading for another sell-out, 30,000+ expected depending on how many Blackburn Rovers bring. Remarkable story of the Sky Blues. 1, Frank Lampard’s transformative management: 17th when he arrived, now top of the Championship, organised defence, no goals conceded in 4 (gk Rushworth smart loan signing from #BHAFC, unbeaten in 433 mins), good attacking football, scored 12 in last 3.
2, players responding and delivering. Lampard’s coaching and people skills seen in improved form of, amongst others, Dasilva, Torp (5 goals) and Thomas-Asante (5 goals, 3 assists). Haji Wright scored 8 in Championship, even scored 2 for USMNT v Australia in Colorado. Even if he tires v Rovers, Simms can come on.
3, Doug King’s transformative ownership, investment in squad, holding on to players (Rudoni when Southampton and Newcastle interested), investment in training ground, buying the ground.
4, brilliant support, loyal through the bad times, huge turnouts at Wembley in Cup (38,000 for United semi) and play-off (40,000 for 2023 final).
Not been in PL since 2000/01, back at Highfield Road. Lamps Champs? Long way to go. Others in the mix. But Coventry definitely heading in the right direction under Lampard and King. #PUSB
