The 1980s British pop rock band, Mike & The Mechanics, saw this coming decades ago with these two songs.

“Silent Running”

“A retired British Army Colonel is warning that he believes a civil war in the country is now inevitable because politicians are unwilling to take meaningful actions to fix societal collapse.”

Unfortunately the British citizenry have nothing to defend themselves with. This is why there is a 1st Amendment in the American Constitution. To protect the citizens against tyranny. So, the British will get what they wanted, good and hard.

asserts that the agitators are “fostered by,” and “funded to a large extent, by our international enemies like Russia, China, Iran, and other countries as well.”

LOL! Russia is forcing UK Politicians to open the borders to 3rd world savages! Then why a civil war? Why not declare war on Russia-China, Colonel?

Eventually the invaders will launch the war on their own. They hate the West and that was their goal from day one. It is truly insane for any nation to let Mozlems in.

I have believed the UK was past the tipping point for sometime now. The US is not that far from it either. Thank God for Trump.

Deport all non-citizens back to their home countries. Problem solved.

I hope we notice it.

The 1st is freedom of speech and religion. The 2nd is the unquestionable right to own and carry firearms. The 2nd guarantees the 1st.

It’s not a civil war.

Citizens are at war with the State, not each other.

It would be a rebellion if it fails.

A revolution if successful.

Note the UK: If you successfully rebel against your Deep State, the first thing you will need this time around is a formal, written constitution.

Feel free to crib ours.

Actually, the Second Amendment guarantees ALL the rest of the Constitution. Without it, the constitution is just some words scrawled on paper, that can’t be enforced. The old saying around here is “The Second Amendment is the only one you can lay your hand on when needed”

“Feel free to crib ours.”

I think our constitution has too much freedom in it for the Brits.

The 1st amendment codifies freedom of speech. The 2nd amendment guarantees it.

If that were the case, their Deep State wouldn’t fear them.

Hopefully the internal wars of the future will target the order-givers and policy-makers rather than those who simply follow the orders. I think it would be both more effective and more economical.

It’s True the British people can’t fall back onto the guns in their personal possession, they absolutely have ways to defend themselves and fight back.

Northern Ireland didn’t have a 2nd Amendment and terrorist attacks, violence was widespread back in the days of the IRA, etc.

What would happen if 4-5 Mosques all of a sudden caught fire and burned to the ground.

Drugs get smuggled into the UK on a daily basis; it’s not a stretch to think guns and explosives could as well.

I see a Civil War in the UK where terrorist attacks against each side thru firebombing and eventually with smuggled weapons and explosives.

Not all wars are fought with guns, they’re plenty of ways to fight back using alternative methods.

We’d have to know who they are first.

Deep States’ frontmen are stupid.

The people hiding behind them are most assuredly not.
