Very Brexit Problems
Very Brexit Problems@VeryBrexitProbs·
Ever wonder why so many Americans think they won WW2 alone? Hollywood spent 80 years telling them they did. Real history rewritten as American victories: The Great Escape - 76 men escaped. British, Commonwealth, Polish, Norwegian, Dutch. Zero Americans. Steve McQueen character fiction. U-571 - Royal Navy captured Enigma. Zero American involvement. Objective Burma - British campaign. Hollywood made it American and gave it to Errol Flynn. Pulled from UK cinemas in disgust.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Bridge on the River Kwai - British characters rewritten as American. Sahara - British 8th Army’s war. Bogart takes charge. Saving Private Ryan - British landing craft crews replaced with Americans. Battle of the Bulge - British erased entirely. Eisenhower held a press conference to denounce it. Heroes of Telemark - Norwegian operation. Cast Kirk Douglas. Hollywood hijacked our history and now we’re all paying the price.

I’ve just signed the petition to ban councils using bailiffs to collect debt. With council tax going up this month, we need to act now before millions of people have the bailiffs come knocking. Can you sign and share? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ban-… via @38degrees

The Iran war is making everything more expensive for us, but some companies are cashing in. Don't think that's right? Sign the petition now demanding they are taxed more on their record profits to help us all with the cost of living. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/rais… via @38degrees

Can you do me a quick favour today? ✍️ The government is finally asking if they should ban cages for hens in the UK. 🐔🐔 Lobbyists are trying to block it, so we need huge numbers to show them that the public wants this ban NOW: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/end-… via @38degrees

I just signed this petition calling on Prince William to end the rent on Dartmoor Prison while it remains empty and unsafe and save millions in public money. It only takes a few seconds - please add your name. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/prin… via @38degrees

Trump is once again trying to flood Britain with chlorinated chicken. Absolutely disgusting. I just signed the petition calling on all major supermarkets to rule out stocking the stuff. Sign here if you agree! 38d.gs/hd_w
