Fearful lesson
What a fearful lesson from history. In 1938 Hitler annexed the Sudetenland under the pretext the populations were ethnic Germans.
Two years later the United Kingdom of Britain was all that stood between Hitler and the total occupation of Europe by the Nazi tyranny.
Today a militaristic, nationalist neo dictator uses Hitler’s same arguments! Putin’s anti western armies pour into the Ukraine!
Is this the time to split up the United Kingdom? Just what chance would a divided and fatally weakened UK have if history continues to repeat itself?
Ask any Norwegian who was alive in 1940. Scaremongering?
I am very scared, we all should be. Britain surely must stay strong and united.
