The only question is was it caused by:

1. global warming
2. COVID-19
3. Trump's fault

First in.

Eric Johnson-Cliffs of Dover

[llevrok]

Paging Vera Lynn...

[dfwgator]

Pretty much a metaphor for what has become of Britain.

[mylife]

That is what makes them cliffs and not hills.

[BrexitBen]

Too “ white “ for the 21st century.

[KarlInOhio]

4. Brexit - Now England is a little farther away from Europe.

[vpintheak]

I’m sure there are plenty of people out there blaming glo-bull warming. Because these cliffs have never done this before, due to any kind of weather or natural phenomenon ever, before man-made globull warming.

[Fungi]

So what? A crime against the planet by the planet?

[W.]

Smooth camera work, soon as it starts to go he points the camera up?! Maddening!

[The Antiyuppie]

“1. global warming
2. COVID-19...”

All of these things, among numerous others such as the likely CTU strike in Chicago and the hapless distribution of vaccine in Illinois, described by the Chigago Tribune (yes, the Tribune) as like the Hunger Games, are Trump’s fault.

[mass55th]

They’re only chalk after all.

[Bayard]

England will steadily sink into the sea!

[sauropod]

.

[glaseatr]

Well, that will raise the sea level to a point that the GoreBull warming crowd will scream.

[GreyFriar]

Just the natural action of the waves against the cliffs, but that is too simple for the globull folks to understand or accept. Go further south along the channel coast of England and the harbor entrance at Hastings that existed in 1066 and for several hundred years before that was silted over by a series of storms a couple of hundred years after William the Conqueror landed there, thus making modern day folks, with no sense of history or geology, wonder why he chose to land on a strip of beach with no harbor. The ancient harbor is now the marsh lands to the west current coast line/closed harbor entrance.

Heathcliff!!!

[Eddie01]

Cliffs made of chalk falls into the sea, eventually

[GOPJ]

The sea is calm tonight.
The tide is full, the moon lies fair
Upon the straits; on the French coast the light
Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand,
Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay.
Come to the window, sweet is the night-air!
Only, from the long line of spray
Where the sea meets the moon-blanched land,
Listen! you hear the grating roar
Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling,
At their return, up the high strand...
...

Yes.

The British WWII installation in the cliffs was one of the coolest things I saw as a tourist. The cliffs are magnificent. Chalk cliffs fall into the sea. It’s in their nature. Still, it’s Trump’s fault ... because of COVID-19. Oh, and also patriarchy or systemic racism or something.
