General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
Article 5 happens the same as if they invade Canada or even Greenland.
This may need to start very soon. On 24 February, the UN general assembly voted on a Ukrainian resolution, co-sponsored by the UK and other European nations, condemning Russia’s invasion. Unsurprisingly, Russia, Belarus, North Korea, Hungary and several small and easily cowed states voted against it. But so did the US andIsrael. This, more clearly than any other shift, exposes the new alignment. An axis of autocracy, facilitating an imperial war of aggression, confronts nations committed (albeit to varying degrees) to democracy and international law.
No one dares to ask? Or just no one needs to ask since the answer is obviously “we’re fucked”.
The best way to defend a country from the US is to not engage them in traditional warfare but use guerilla tactics until they give in and go home. They've lost multiple wars this way.
how should i use this info if I'm already in the us
But also to not have multiple US military bases already on British soil.
I’m not a military person, but I feel that could be seen as tactically unwise…
This is what I was saying to someone a couple of weeks ago when Musk was talking about liberating the UK.
They don't need to invade us, they're already here.
Dont they technically own those bases? They ones i remember were very explicitly named RAF (Royal Air Force), don't know about other US branches presence
If they’re full of US military personnel, does it matter who legally owns the land? 😉
If they invade the UK we're just going to throw all their bud light in the sea. See how they like it.
The sea will throw it back
Unfortunately even then the M.O. is to flatten half the country, dismantle any existing government, then half-heartedly declare victory before leaving any survivors to clean up the mess.
Sounds like US domestic policy
Sound like the American War of Independence against The British
Time truly is circular
us person here and every commercial segment of crunchy roll has a military recruitment ad and the ads are nuts. Granted this was made two years ago but its so orwellian. Massive effort to defund social safety nets here to give kids from poor backgrounds few options. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9gTAjbiQEM
I've been asking this since Trump declared for Russia. UK has nukes, they lease the missiles from the US, and those missiles supposedly have a shelf life, but in a pinch, push comes to shove, they probably can be extended use for decades, also, France makes missiles that would carry British nuclear warheads, so there's that.
