Rex conner authority to raise loans had been withdrawn and he was sacked all before the dismissal
As a justification for the dismal it;s complete red herring.
And furthermore the 4yo to teenage Elizabeth is NOT going to be making any decisions about running the country.
The Queen Mother could not be regent as she was not in the line of succession. And the Regent would be making was very limited the decisions for the crown. And regardless of the...
Guess work based on what? Public persoana are not always godo guide to relations in private. There would have been a male regent named almost certainly Speculating without evidence at all about the the personal relationship of people you do not know at all is guessing in the dark. Some...
No Not true.In 1940 the UK produced 15,000 aircraft the Germans 10,000. This didn't all happem after the late in the Battle of Britain.
Single ENginee fights of Hurricane and Spitfares maybe aircrat losses exceeded profuction briefly but no more so than the Germans.
During the critical period...
No, at no stage was the battle of Britain going well for the Luftwaffe. They were always losing of relative scale. The RAF was getting stronger throughout the battle getting more aircraft and pilots in., as opposed to the Lufwaffe losing more aircraft and pilots getting weaker.
The Germrans had...
Well For Hitler Russia was always the main game. That were always wanted to go.
How could Hitler possible get across the channel?
Operation sealion in 1940 was a horrible improvised plan full of bad ideas and improvisations. But there no real clear alterniatives. River barges, being towed in...
The Liberal party just was not a significant factor going back to 1918, less than 20% of the votes. And the Golden age of theliberal party was before major franchise reform in 1918 the size of the electorate had more or less trebled. The Rise of Labour as more working class people got the vote...
yeah but some people claim lots of stuff, nothing I seen has been well researched or documented. It's bistromathics of dubious quality

History taught in western schools has a large western European/Australian bias. We tend to study our history, what happened in...
Lot of variables hard to say. Perhaps German lack the tip of spear tabks abd aircaft they had in 1940 and France survives which readically reshapes teh war. Italy stays out, Japan stays out of indo china perhaps Russia never gets involved.
Chamberlain, British and French leaders were very conscious of the their lack of armament and the slow pace of their re-armament programs. They were painfully aware of their own shortfalls. They also had over estimation German forces. German armament still had some weaknesses in 1938, almost no...
Yes no one particularity wanted a large war right away in 1938. Even hawks wanted time to re-arm and Chamberlain did take significant re-armament steps. I think Chamberlain was still hopping for peace, but prudently re-arming as he was increasingly dubious of Hitler. But Chamberlain felt a...
yeah if you are nty aware of something it does not exist.
No hold it that isn't true t he world does not go away when you close your eyes,
The question is not when did the internet became apart of everyday life.
It's just being factual. The Internet is not the web.

Yes and No. Sometime things are created by one person though there are often people working on simialr things and parallel evolution of technology common. Some things are invented several times. Also advances rely on the vast body of work that has gone before. Some one doing the last yerd of a...
Several Japanese commanders made much of this AFTER the war, claiming much with hindsight. Officers writing their memoirs often have their own axes tio grind. The claims of officers clamouring for a 3rd wave have been seriously challenged,. The all too often game of blame the dead guy so often...
Steve Jobs did not invent the smart phone, it was a fully developed product on the market well before the iPhone. Jobs really invented nothing, it was a marketing genius not a technical one. He was good at creating premium brands. Packaging product. He made them desirable. Windows/Mouse...
Other treaties =
The Treaty ending the Franco Prussian war, Thee Brest=Litvosk Treaty, the September Program. The Treaty of Versailles was clearly less severe than what
the German woudl have imposed if they won. It was less severe than the treaties imposed on Austria-Hungray and Turkey,
The...
I disagree. The Versailles version of popular history is pretty much identical to the German inter war propaganda. Much of the framing and talk aorund teh treaty, is pretty simplistic one sides and without much nuisance. While the rterms of the treaty can be seen they have to be in context., and...
All Historians are revisionist. It's about weighing evidence, sources, and changing one 's view as more evidence comes to light.
A basic introduction to history should deal with this fairly squarely. Certainly When I returned to University to study history it was.

There was not a great shortage of food in Germany during ww2 until right at the End. He did not accumlate enough POWs , he needed the labour killing 3 million Rusisan POWs in 1941 was counter productive. They needed the labor and had the food, (in striaght out utilartian no morals view(
By Who? Based on What? Where the Melbourne club smoking room? Sounds terribly facetious.
Popular belief and rumours and myths of history are often wrong. I cannot see Britian granting Irish independence in 1800.

I doubt it. Rome would have raised more troops, if possible rather than call troops back.
In any case interception sea in this period is somewhat Chancey
How about some specifics to these claims?
How exactly did Roosevelt subvert democracy?

How did Lincoln subvert democracy?
What lies did Lincoln peddle about the war with the south?
