I know the Brits pronounce words differently, but they spell ‘defense’ as ‘defence?”

Just as I’m sure Obama’s homo-sexualized military and their offshoots wouldn’t accept anything from the John Birch Society, the Minutemen, us, the Tea Parties and etc.

They also spell “gasoline” as “p-e-t-r-o-l”.

Slightly off subject, but I found some English marmalade this weekend that was made by a corporate sponsor of Help for Heroes. They denote 5p for every jar sold. I don’t know if mine will count, since it was sold here in the US, but that was the deciding factor between it and another brand.

Yep. They do that in Canada, too. As a hockey fan, it was kind of strange seeing the word “defenceman” on a hockey roster for the first time. LOL.

I’d be inspired to see the EDL grow by 100x and become armed to the teeth. With the gaggle of dhimmis who run that government in a continuing state of retreat, an armed EDL is about the only hope the UK has of staving off its demise.

Well, A “Tyre” is the rubber bit on car wheels,(or bicycles and motorcycles)
And a “Kerb” is the bit between the road and the footpath, (Walkway, Sidewalk, Etc.)

LOL

I prefer Marmite over Marmalade, irrespective of the “COLOUR” of either.;-)

PC uber alles. Better dead than non-PC.

As the English go extinct and their last women are enslaved and forcibly converted to Islam, the last Englishmen alive will say, "at least we died in total political correctness!"
