Ladies and fellow Countrymen.
Today, what was recently our great empire stretching vastly into colonies in North America stands completely occupied. We stand in the shadow of the flags of our occupiers; the Brazilians, the Portuguese, and the Frogs. It took four nations to wipe us off the map, but we stand wiped today. But we stand.
But how did we get here? After a successful march into and the complete annexation of the North American colonies into the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, how did we lose all of our colonies and then lose our homeland in just a few days time?
Inactive and ineffectual leadership. After the success of the administration of Alex Popovic and his team - a team that lead us to the complete and glorious occupation of the North American colonies, the new team of the current Country President has been less than stellar. After failing on every faucet of government, especially in matters of defense, the nation fell. Without a competent military strategy, it doesn't make a difference how fast the people stand.
It is time to STAND UP and put an end to petty squabbles and put the UK back on the map. it is a sad fact that the UK is wiped. I am already putting together a team of people that will lead the UK to victory.
It is time to STAND UP and be an important nation on the world stage once again. With the collapse of Sirius, the UK will be a position to strengthen ties with allies, both new and old. The only good thing about being wipes is that we get to start anew.
It is time to STAND UP and do SOMETHING.
Will you STAND WITH ME?
As always, it's been your pleasure.

Let's take a STAND and Take Back our Nation!

The one with the Simpsons pic and the Jesus pic?
ya, looks like you lot could use a jesus face palm now 😛
Let's take a STAND and Take Back our Nation!
I for one welcome our 'Murican overlords.
weren't you STANDING UP and quitting/being deleted or something? Any way just pulling your leg, gl UK get your country back and get some colonies wile at it
Having a good time in the UK. and tgeh admin convinced me to NOT delete my account, so might as well keep on keeping on.
Sometimes a change is all you need, I guess.
STAYING!
As long as its not a One Night Stand
In order to get your land back you must sign a NAP with Canada and give us oil.
How very boring.
It is Canada, what did you expect?
nope, it don't work like that
I wasn't even going to entertain him, Wayne 😉
It's DMV at the end of the day... guy can't even succeed in eCanada!
Good luck.
Without a challenge... there is no accomplishment.
Every day in UK is a different challenge. You'll get used to it.
I'm standing, but nothing changed...
I'm sitting back down!
nothing like a glorious occupation to rile up the old Home Guard!
But still, in all fairness, how we got here was through our alliance collapsing at the same time we came under pressure. These things happen.
It was planned Boh 😛
Obviously planned by Portugal, the other nations involved lack all capacity to plan! 😛
Good luck man, I still remember you as one of the good eAmericans!

You fail to mention the fact that under Alex's term,Brazil voted an Air Strike on the eUK.
You also fail to mention that Portugal proposed a NE against us,also under Alex's term.
Alex then requested an impeachment due to "ill health",Leaving the new CP to pick up the pieces,mid term, in the midst of a 4 prong attack.
On top of that our alliance collapsed.Although this has been on the cards for months,it is just bad luck it happened at this time.However you also fail to mention this.
No matter who is CP,he would not have been able to avert a wipe against such odds.
Ah, mick .. but DC won't blame themselves, or their friends
Blame DC for what?
Suezo being out of his depth? You can't pin that one on us I'm afraid,
Well, you put a player with RL "personal issues" up for CP, backed by DC controlled parties, probably knowing full well he wouldn't complete a full term and surprise, surprise, he asks to be impeached when the sh*t hits the fans
Are you aware that suezo now has "personal issues"? No, because he's tried to keep it quiet. Now he can't be impeached in favour of Rodney; through really no fault of his own as the wipe, that started under Aleks, would've happened anyway.
Or was that your plan all along, to get an Aleks dictatorship? But he bailed on you.
The idea that the wipe was inevitable is nonsense Neil, we've had a series of blunders from the govt, especially the MoD, that has led us here. Starting RWs at the wrong times, wrong prios set, COs set at the wrong times or not set when they needed to be ... etc etc
So if Alex wiping Canada was the cause of all this, what has been the cause of all the other LETO gangbangs?
As regards witch hunt,wayne mate when i said that your name never even crossed my mind
Yea and if stayed we'd have money for CO. Our fault RN people are poor as f*ck and have no idea what to do? Since you decided to group people...
Ah the broken record again.
You seem to insist on bringing the RN into a situation it had nothing whatsoever to do with......pitiful
tbf Mick, a Commander of the RN keeps bringing DC into this, when DC had nothing to do with it.
The RN also had nothing to do with it wayne
I will address any blaming of DC in our feeds
I dont blame DC Neil mate,in fact i dont blame anyone.Shit happens.
It is'nt the 1st time we have been wiped and it wont be the last.
All i am trying to do here is put a stop to the Suezo witch hunt that some are hell bent on.
It is unjust
Awwww, another contradiction. Well 40k cc wasted and not a single thing done. Someone's to be blamed for that!
where is the contradiction?
It is not unjust when the first thing done is to put in place a MOD who had no clue how to be a MOD while in the middle of being attacked. The coordination channel was chaos and others had to try to take charge while COs were not being placed etc. It almost feels like congress wipe and unimpeachable status was the aim.
As far as i'm aware the MoD under Alex had no wish to carry on under Suezo.
I have no idea why he chose Holle and quite frankly i dont care.
My point is,this wipe was unavoidable.
Maybe we could have delayed it,but i seriously doupt it under the circumstances
That's not true. First thing Suezo did was sack me and I was financing everything. We would easily beat French and cut off Portugal with CO...
Ain't even a witch hunt bro, players not allowed to voice their concerns? Do we have to just shut up and go along with whatever harebrained scheme the CP comes up with?
You know me better than that Mick, I'll happily call a spade, a spade regards of who it is...
I thought that any Military unit could set a CO not just the MOD? so anyone who had the money (including Serf) could still have continued to finance CO s.
I guess some people preferred to put their self-interest first and drop the eUK in the crap and then pull their support simply because they felt butt hurt at their pet Muppet quitting on them. It's useful to know who are the selfish idiots who are prepared to screw the rest of eUK when they don't get their own way politically.
You need to be a Commander to do so Alan. Maybe you should finally get acquainted with the game mechanics.
And I agree, dropping me from MoD is putting your petty squabbles ahead of UK...
Serf I was simply pointing out that you could have asked any commander of any MU to set up any CO s you were willing to finance (or even set up your own MU?). Your previous comments implied that you were still willing to help with CO s but your removal as MOD meant you couldn't which is not true.
So... You want me to give hollenboer MY MONEY so he can set CO after I've been sacked for no reason and he's never set CO before and knows very little about military module? Is that what you're saying?
Are you implying that you will only help the eUK under certain administration and maybe as and when it suits you?
Not implying anything. Stating the fact I got sacked from MoD and hollenboer became the new Commander. Hard to understand?
No Serf as you are well aware I didn't suggested giving any money to the MOD, but using a Commander of an MU obviously one you trusted (or an MU you set up if you can do that) to set the CO s you wanted if you were serious about your offer to continue to finance CO s.
Alen, if I'm about to spend 200k more cc, I'd like to do it myself. Not because I don't necessarily trust someone but because I've done it in the past and I get things done. I gave Adasros 10k for NFL RW in one round and we we were in the lead but then I got criticized by VoodooMike and hollenboer (who was offline for the most part) that I was undermining the government. Hollenboer then opened another RW and completely ruined our chances to get free from Portugal. Why would I waste any more cash on it when they always decide to do completely other things and never listen to any advice? Explain me?
