and i think , tbh, that the majority of the anti-thatcher sentiment on ilx might well have its root there as opposed to the policies that so many of them apologise for under nu-labour

The union jack is essentially a geneological road map connecting the islands, with the red lines showing how our british blood joins us together despite being seperated by the blue swathes of the ocean and the white cliffs of dover.

also dmac is posting pictures of potatoes, lagoon if you didn't know the english people all LOVE potatoes but most of the good potato farms were on what is now great britain, so after the continental drift the people in "ireland" didn't have any potatoes and they all starved. they were mad abt this so they started a war w/ their british brothers to get their potatoes back, they lost and the british made them all dye their hair red very funny story but also sad, a constant reminder of their defeat at the hands of the 'redcoats'
