'Boris sends gunboats to defend Jersey'

[Eeyore]

The Daily Express headline that reads like an Enid Blyton novel.

Apparently our wealthy outpost needs protecting against the massed ranks of a few fishermen and their shaking fists.

100 French vessels will be sailing to Jersey this morning, farting in our general direction, and returning in the afternoon.

Let's just hope those dastardly frogs haven't been getting a few tips from the Reykjavik rebels of yesteryear...

From the BBC article;
‘ The ships are routinely used for fisheries protection - with sailors able to board other boats for spot checks.’

So what’s the problem ?

Time to remember the immoral words of Henry V: “Cry cod for Harry, England and St George!”

Oh no I haven’t!

Btw, have you seen the Twitter account @RAFLuton? It’s brilliant.

A light dusting of Rule Britannia propaganda for Election Day. Subtle as a house brick.

The Sun missed a trick. Their front page normally consists of Hop Off you Frogs.

He’s done an amazing job at pissing off both our fishermen and french fishermen. Who would have thought brexit would have resulted in this eh

 

[blue-shifted]

Why can't our nation just f****** grow up.

The fact that Boris has calculated (correctly) that this will play well with the public says to me that our country is populated by jingoistic, exceptionalist idiots.

I want out

One of the two ships was anchored of Brighton last Saturday.
