Question for Heavy Sleeting
Gnomon - time to move on Started conversation Sep 5, 2011
Hi Sleeting. You said in another conversation "You obviously have no understanding of our history and how suppressed its been." But then you unsubbed so I couldn't ask you there.
Do you mind me asking what country you are from?

Why did you say the British had taken over your country, then?

Because they did.
I talked on that thread about the conception of Britain and the Union to be to do with Empire.
Try looking up a bit of William Blake or reading a bit of E M Forster and you might have a clue.
But its endlessly tiresome for someone from the English countryside having to try to explain this stuff.

Well I thought he we go again when you said,
>Why did you say the British had taken over your country, then?<
Why would you say that if I said I was English?
You will go a long way to find someone that doesn't think British/English are the same thing. I meet it endlessly on h2g2..and yes it gets tiresome...
