Ok,
I understand the resentment some of you Brits may feel over the loss of the Colonies. But, think about it. If we were still under British rule, you'ld be screwed. Your empire had diminished quite a bit by 1700's. America is the country that saved your *** in both World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, and other wars. If it were not for us, the whole world would speak German and be saying HEIL, FURHER! Plus, if you nuke us, we nuke ya back. Think carefully, do you think a tiny island with an army of about 600,000 could stand against an army of around 1,000,000 pissed Americans? I don't think so. Plus, you sound like a drunk idiot

I completely disagree with what it is your saying. I am a true British patriot and i know that we had a incrediably powerful empire which id like to add for the benefit of another poster was more prominant after the 1700's especially under the reign of Queen Victoria. However in this day and age there is no place for vast empires.
As far as `nuking` The USA, what possible reason is there for doing that. I hardly think that losing 13 colonies over 200 years ago is a justified reason for all out war. The USA is Britain's main ally and has helped in both world wars however it can be argued that WWI1 was lost by a bad decision by kaiser Wilhelm.
As for The Queens English, local dialect and accents change their pronunciation even within the United Kingdom.

I agree 100%. Of course the UK would be annihilated by the US counterstrike. The US is so much larger and more populous than the UK that the end resulf of a premptive strike would be the death of almost the entire british people but good luck anyway. And the Royal Navy protecting anything is not really a reality. The UK forces while highly trained and of outstanding motivation are far to small in number to be effective against the US or even Iran for that matter. Without the US there is no UK I am afraid. Of course you can hold on to your delusions of a return to past UK glories all you wish. Love and kisses, strong message follows. HA Ha Ha

Wow, way to live in the past. Of course your *cough* empire would no longer exist were it not for the US pulling your collective tails out of the fire so many times. But you'll whine and cry that it was something but fact is your itty bitty country is just jealous of everyone else on the planet. Then again you'll soon be a Muslim satellite and finish flushing yourselves down the toilet.
Let's not forget you are the idiots who still pay tribute to a monarchy that does ABSOLUTELY nothing for your country.

I always wondered what the "Queen's English" was. Now I know. Stupidity.
And, don't need your fishing trip. Already done one in the Suez while clearing mines a few years ago so we could protect your glorious (?) Navy(?).

Because for every one nuke the UK would send over, the US would send 20 back (and still have a huge reserve). Thus no one would be around to build any robots.

It would be kind of difficult seeing how you use US missiles which are reliant on US targeting systems. In other words, you'd need US assistance.

We whipped you once and with a group of colonists-against British soldiers!! We saved your butts in both World Wars to come out as victors. Be careful or we'll add you to us and make you speak our English as well as Mexican!
