  1. Nah. The Ukraine isn't giving the USA anything in return 😂

  2. Supposedly there's been upwards of 30 places called Bedford in the USA... as someone from the original British one... I can't imagine why 🤔😆 .

  3. False. At least 12 UBoats are recorded as having been eliminated by these ships, among other achievements. Not to mention that - a bit like how having a Battleship escort deterred the Scharnhorst sisters' and the cruiser Prince Eugene from attacking various convoys, a convoy with escort of any kind was inherently less vulnerable to attack than those that didn't. So~ no; spend some time researching before running your keyboard here boyo 😂 .

  5. Nah. It's more that the left love throwing turds (proverbially & otherwise) at historical leaders... though ironically the left of the 1940's had enough patriotism to support the war, and Churchill.

  6. ^×2 False. The Zimmerman telegram was genuine, and Germany had been shooting up ships with Americans on them in the Atlantic for years at this point. Any sane president would have joined WWI. (Teddy Roosevelt in particular was keen to intervene) That; and the "stiffed on debt" bit is a total lie. The UK repayed its loans from both wars... took a while, but large wartime loans usually do. If The Ukraine still exists in a few years, they'll owe the western nations a bill that will probably take centuries to repay, given what a worthless post-communism 4th world dump the place is 😂.

  7. @ThePhoenix198  Maybe... though if so my market town had a vast impact on the US proportionate to her size 😆

  8. Never let it be said that we Brit's don't enjoy a bit of irony 😂

  9. @ThePhoenix198  Kind of. Manchester does have the largest Shipping Canal in the UK.

  10. Technically it took until the 00's to pay it off... and in the same decade the uk government first flogged off the gold reserves at a loss, and then crashed the economy and wasted billions of taxpayers money on ""quantitative easing"", trying to patch up their mistake 🤦‍♂️ . The main reason it took so long to repay the wartime loans... is that the economy has been governed by morons (many of the Socialist or similarly economically illiterate) for most of the period from 1945 to present 🤦‍♂️ .

  11. @jimjolly4560  Relatively yes; though governmental competence would have seen it dealt with even sooner 🤔 .

  12. Seriously though; naming them after Villages or Hamlets would have made more sense than what they went with 🤔
