    Agreed. Point was OG's ludicrous claim Russians could have won war without help from US/UK/Commonwealth.

    They didn't have longer. And your figures don't take into account situation before Russia moved production east.The aid bought them the required time. They rebuilt all major industry out of range of Nazis and utilised the Shermans etc (and more importantly the food) to hold off the Germans...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I could agree with you OG but then I, d be wrong too. As for your comment Russia could have won war without US... Utterly ridiculous. Shows your ignorance of subject. It was a close run thing as it was. Without second front (French) Germany would have obliterated Russia,especially so without...

    Yep, agreed. Again though Germans showed great ingenuity producing oil and petro chemicals from coal. Another area they were leading the way with. Not the actions of "thick" chemists.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Had Nazis not employed such awful social policies they would probably have been successful with their thousand year Third Reich. Technical, engineering and general innovations (Road network for one) they were years ahead of Uk/USA.. Look at which engineers went to America and put an American...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No, OG, I, m afraid I don't see the parallels. We haven't had a Crystalnacht, we still have a democracy, but without a viable 2nd party. We aren't looking for extra living room, we aren't expelling Jews and closing down Jewish businesses. We aren't embarking on secret arms development to avoid...

    The probably was around his wife's suicide. Nobody knows exactly why she chose to kill herself... The situation was all his own doing, agreed. He has suggested his wife's state of mind was "probably" caused by investigation. But the point is how does labelling him "a fascist" help. It simply...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    In a less flippent manner... This Patterson bloke has done wrong, obviously. The system is wrong and he has taken advantage but... The situation has probably cost him his wife's life, his career and his reputation. And, personally, don't think any of his actions justify calling him a fascist...

    I accept your confession. 3 hail Marys should suffice after each indiscretion. Go with God my son. Nobody is perfect. Perhaps you might try to narrow your insults down to less than 40% of country tho.. I actually agree some Tories behave like Fascists...in reality that doesn't mean either they...

    Think the lot should be compulsory.. Have vaccine or don't use NHS. Anti vaxxers want it both ways. Doctor tells them get a vaccine. Feck off, anti vaxxers says... But can I have medication for blah blah blah.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I agree many should be sacked and even prosecuted, but hung from nearest lamp post? No. Strange isn't it. We all think world should be cleaner, less violent and more caring but all of us see it as somebody else's responsibility to change. Yes, we want less plastic waste, less air pollution...

    The electric propulsion system I read about did have advantages to fuel type, in that the stuff ejected out the rear was coming out loads loads faster and as such could be lots lighter to give thrust... But cant supply anything like that required to defeat gravity.. They, d be deployed after all...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I thought even electric propulsion systems used material "thrown out" the back (or heated to a plasma and expansion of gases utilised)?? And, I, m not sure electric rocket propulsion is that new... Talk years ago about laser fired at solar panels on board a "rocket" that then used electricity...

    Anyone use AliExpress regularly, what's your thoughts please?

    I, ve bought quite a few things on Alibaba and just a couple on Aliexpress. Experience fantastic on all occasions. You tend to need Eori number for Alibaba but not always case and certainly not on Aluexpress. (it's person to person transactions, Alibaba is supposed to be B2B but you can from...
