How in fact did they rescue us?
In UK we get a very limited, very one sided story concerning our entry into WW2
We are taught that Hitler invaded Poland so we declared war on Germany.
It all sounds very noble. 'The British. Defenders of our oppressed Polish cousins'.
I read lots of history BUT I have never read anything about this time and these events.
So far this thread as contained no useful info or opinions and it would be great if the Polish view of these events could be contributed.
It is not antagonistic. Just because I'm a Brit doesn't mean I cannot listen to criticism of Britains behaviour.
Churchill was a bastard!
He had the soldiers open fire on striking coal-miners.
He could sacrifice a thousand lives and not lose a minute of sleep over it.
He was a typical upper class English gentleman of his generation.
Born at Blenhiem Palace he believed it was his birthright to rule the 'common people'.
In 1945 the British electorate couldn't get rid of him fast enough.
But he was re-elected in the 50's?
OPINIONS ON BRITISH BETRAYAL OF POLAND AFTER WW2 would be interesting to read.
And if Bubba woo (et al) feel too patriotic to accept them maybe they should read a few history books.
We Brits didn't get the biggest empire the world has ever known by being honest and fair.
