Thread Name: BS: England's Evil Empire
Subject: RE: BS: England's Evil Empire
What! The Brits get no credit for drug running to China, or introducing VD to large areas of the Pacific? The trouble is, who does the "England's Evil Empire" refer to? How many mill workers, miners, soldiers, sailors or labourers got a cushy number because of this empire? There probably is a big enough buffoon somewhere, who really does believe that the UK is a land of Jeeves and Bertie Woosters. It's as intelligent as believing that "Dallas" is an accurate portrayal of everyday American life.
