I’m a soccer aficionado and I love the fanaticism of English soccer fans!

When did the Germans get so touchy? Might they be spoiling for a rematch in the world war category?

I swear this guy is the first autistic person to become PM. First, he schedules an election *before* the first deportations to Rwanda, highlighting the fact that he has either been incompetent on migrant expulsions or deliberately dragged his feet. Then he left early on D-Day commemorations. And now this. Conservatives should migrate wholesale to Reform just to humiliate this guy, make him the man who burned the Tories to the ground. This way, instead of a fine addition to his resume, his PM stint becomes something he’d rather not talk about.

How is this considered offensive? The Scottish anthem talks about Bannockburn and sending the English “home to think again” The French national anthem talks about watering their furows with “impure blood” of Austrians. How given all that, is it offensive to sing a song about shooting down Nazi bombers in world war ii?

Honestly, it seems pretty mild.

I laughed when they played Australia in Rugby and sang “we all shagged Matilda”......

In 1990 when England lost to Germany in the 1990 FIFA semifinals Margaret Thatcher was asked, “Isn’t it terrible about England losing to Germany in our national sport?”

Maggie replied, “They may have beaten us at our national sport, but we managed to beat them at their national sport twice in the 20th century”.

“TEN GERMAN BOMBERS”

They’ll likely get a taste of One Russian Bomber if they don’t come to their senses.

If British fans start singing that song, German fans should respond by singing these songs by Charlie & His Orchestra that will offend the British:

St. Louis Blues

Slumming on Park Avenue

Stormy Weather

Thanks for the Memory

American Pilot to Frankfurt ATC. “American 459 requesting instructions for landing...”

ATC “Use runway 45L and approach at blah, blah, blah, and watch out where you park. A lot of you Americans are cowboys, after all.”

American Pilot “American 459 wilco, been to Frankfurt before - but didn’t land.”
