That's about $130 billion.
And don't forget the lack of radios, or armour, or working weapons, or decent rations. I really could have a massive rant about this, but that would be a waste of therapy now wouldn't it....

Well much to rant about, in all fairness. Could get very little England, and bemoan why don't we make anything good in this country anymore. WHy does it feel like we're so ashamed of ourselves.

MEaning that the general population are wankers?
Or that lots of people are actually wanking in public( which would also technically make them wankers)
Still, at least we're not French.

We've sold everything to the Saudis that's why.
Would be funny if they invaded our defenceless island and took their money back.
Because we've allowed the snivelling liberals to take over the country. Today we found out that the local authority want pupils (including primary school pupils) to be on interview panels. I think the phrase I want to use is f*ck off. But I won't. It's symptomatic of the rubbish that's flying around.

Years of subconscious action by governments to dirty the English (and to a lesser extent British) name(s) and identity/ies, enforcing a mental link between patriotism and inextricable racism and xenophobia.

If I ever feel down, I remind myself of that and cheer up instantly. 
We could've so easily been French, couldn't we? I mean with Hastings and all.
Don't you DARE say that. 
The point is that we're not!
And bloody good too, what?
What, what?
What what. What? Tally ho!
We did a debate about fox-hunting once. At one point in rehersal it involved two of the boys jumping around saying "Tally ho!" in posh accents, and the rest of us falling about laughing.
