So if the UK didn't have any 'best' universities it would be unworthy of being loved?

you are the only person to profess love for your country

You brought love into this, not me.  I asked you to say something positive about the UK you profess to love like your own children, remember?

You have had several opprtunities to show support and appreciation for the British army playing a major role in saving millions from the tyranny of hitler. Your response was that portugal received more jewish refugees. This lack of support and appreciation can only be understood in one way..imo....you dont support their efforts in WW2

I applaud and admire every single person who contributed to the defeat of the Nazis, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, whether British or not.

You were the one to equate love with positive statements, not me.

So once again you refuse to acknowledge the particular input of the British army... Which in my view makes all my criticisms of your posts perfectly valid

You need to explain what you mean by 'British Army'.

Don't the Scotts make whisky and it's the Irish who make whiskey

That was an Easter egg planted for the first sad, pedant to spot it. Well done.

In that case you are making a meaningless statement when you speak of 'the British Army'. It isn't something which exists in a stand alone context. It's part of the Armed Forces and of the Ministry of Defence. It can also be seen as the total of it's personnel, assuming they are all agreed as to their aims and acheivements.

I think my statement is quite meaningful.... You are once, again stating your opinion as fact and trying unsuccessfully to deflect from the issue
