Bah, that's how we like it. Broke, complaining and looking for ways to swindle you Brits and the Danes.
Remember the cod war?
Or was that stricken from the British history books?
helgipunk
Oh yes, the money. We spent it all on nonsense.
Having money in large amounts makes us nervous.
apincle
I'm sure there's madness to your method
helgipunk
Damn right.
And I bet there is a soup in your fly.
Erm, right. whatever you say grettirr!
TheBadMaus
This is a joke right?? I mean, there can't actually be people who believe in a cause like this? None of what they say makes ANY sense.... Bloody filthy people!!!!!

@StandTogetherForever: I hope you have accepted my apology? I would never insult someone using such a fancy picture of Nelson! Napoleon should have done the same: Dying in battle, tough dying at a great victory is bittersweet but dying when having lost for ever a mere necessity. But of course are always the winners the good guys: Just think of Harold Godwinson! If he had prevailed at Hastings over the French Normans he would today be hailed as the great Viking-slayer and liberator of England!
StandTogetherForever
Are you implying I have something against Harold Godwinson,why would I hate him just because William won and took over,Harold was part of my countries forging and too hate him would be idiotic,we aren't always the winners OR the good guys,when did I say so?What did the Napoleonic wars do?6 million Europeans dead,France bankrupt and the loss of her overseas colonies.France was threatened by coalitions who opposed the revolution, so what happened?they put one man in charge! and went to war anyway!
StandTogetherForever
The Napoleonic wars were good for nobody but in the end it paved the way for Brtain to have naval supremacy, Napoleon weakened France at the expense of a short lived success and afew victorious battles. A shame really.

Is this a joke? If it isn't, it's even funnier!
Filsdegilbert
Ahh.. Is Britain going to pay for the rebuilding of the Königsberg Altstadt (oldtown) that they specifically destroyed for Josef Stalin's USSR in 1945. One of Europes most beautiful medieval citys destroyed in three nights of firestorm bombing by the RAF.

Iceland? Are the ones that look like Charles Bronson and fish through little holes in the snow? Oh no youre the robbing bastards who got caught with your fingers in the till and got your economy totalled as a result. Huumm come to think of it though, you might be fishing through holes in the snow soon enough lol
helgipunk
Say what you will about us Icelanders. We are guilty and have it coming to us.
But our neighbours in Greenland are good, decent people. please show them some respect and leave them out of your little comments.
telstar9
If lots money makes you nervous helgipunk you need never worry ever again!
helgipunk
Oh yes, and the money. To you, who claim to have lost your life savings on Icesave, did you notice that the money is repaid, and the initial numbers cited in the crash were vastly overestimated and we will according to predictions be the first to recover from this mess?
Did you really lose money or is this just a joke to you? Britain's record throughout history in this matter is not exactly squeeky clean as you may realise.
telstar9
Thats simply not true, Iceland as not repaid the money it owes, the British government as paid the average citizen who lost money. As for the charities and local councils who invested, they still stand to loose billions!. Where do you get your facts from? The Fantasy Island Daily News? Iceland being the first to recover,? you cant be getting the facts, every expert is saying you are totally finished in banking terms.

@StandTogetherForever: Excuses! But tell me: Who had the better right to the English throne: Harold Godwinson or Wilhelm I. the Conquer? French revolution&Napoleon: Firstly the coalition declared war on revolutionary France while Napoleon was still a lieutenant of the artillery! His rise was in the first coalition wars against France; after the various fraction did destroy each other he was able to complete his coup, Machiavelli wrote about this danger in case of successful warlords.
GreatGrumbledook
@StandTogetherForever: 6 Million dead? Where did you get this figure? France was bankrupt before and lost most her colonies in the 7 Years War but was able to undo Englands victory in the North America. I oppose Napoleon as a conqueror and tyrant but do not deny his magnificent military achievement and abilities. Also European history would not be the same without Austerlitz, Trafalgar, Waterloo and Leipzig. If Napoleon could have prevailed to gain hegemony in Europe for France I do not know...

@StandTogetherForever: It maybe naughty to fight wars and occupy other countries to place your kindred on foreign thrones but to wage war against China to enforce it to allow British opium trade is not real glory either, is it?
apincle
not really glory, but it did make us a very wealth little Island.
apincle
No, Britain isn't.
The Royal Air Force rock!!
apincle
This is all very Interesting, but can we get back to Britain NOT paying the world reparations.
I was enjoying not being sorry for the excesses of the glorious British Empire.
helgipunk
Sorry, my misunderstanding. True you are, the money has not been repaid, but rather, let's say located.
The media these days are of course very unreliable, but rest assured that the average Icelander does want to see this mess ending well, as well as you.
About the media, have you considered that the mainstream British media is considered a joke in most other countries? This is a "their experts vs. our experts" issue.
telstar9
Every country as its gutter press the UK is no different. Having said that some of the most respected newspapers in the world are British eg. The Times and thats saying the same as all the others.(finance wise anyway)
helgipunk
What is your view on the fact that there seems to be a news blackout on all things Icelandic these days, there are people in Britain searching youtube for answers on what is going on here.
It's not whether they are telling the truth, it's what's left out what often matters.
Mind you, we don't get the Times here.
Actually, the UK gutter press is infamous the world over, setting the standard in low.
telstar9
There isnt a news blackout on Iceland helgipunk, without wishing to be rude no one cares about Iceland anymore thats yesterdays fish and chip paper. Britains economy is badly hit so thats the news headlines at the moment. If you dont get The Times and cant say if its the best newspaper in the world or not, how can you say that the gutter press is the worst?
helgipunk
I get Sky news on TV and there the front pages are read and shown on screen. Your own peoples opinions on your Tabloid journalism isn't that high either generally I hear.
Of course the famous "Tory MP/randy vicar in mad sex romp with goat" type headlines are a popular joke about this matter...

When you say the British media you are then including The BBC and Sky News and as i previously mentioned the Times newspaper then the Guardian and the Independent and a few others. There reputation is unequalled anywhere in the world. Its a ridiculous sweeping statement to brand all the British media like that. BTW why are you watching sky news then if UK media is so dire?

Why do British people have such bad teeth?
apincle
Why are Americans fat and stupid?
Elevationary
why do Britihs have bad Teeth?...............Beastiali ty with ponys.
TGWMPE
Official figures show that tooth decay is the third most common reason children are admitted to the hospital. Around 37,000 cavity-filled kids are taken each year, up 13% from five years ago.
In fact, the average 16-year-old Brit has teeth of a 97-year-old American.
apincle
It's England's fault we have mexican illegals
It's England's fault we whine so much

Elevationary

telstar9

AConcernedBlogger
We don't have bad teeth. That's a rascist stereotype. Those facts are bullshit. Most people I meet have perfect teeth, and I meet a lot of people. And Elevationary - beastiality is LEGAL in some ctities in the USA.
telstar9
Yes of course we will, just as soon as the bill for rebuilding London, Birmingham, Coventry ,Cardiff, Manchester ,Liverpool and Glasgow is settled.
sgnewa
I have told you once.telstar . I am not your English history teacher ...there was no king Ella ?
telstar9
Ok i`ll ask the 16 year old Brit to give them back, after all we don`t want any bad feelings between the countries
