Best war movie of recent years is Three Kings or Atonement


E: Having looked at three kings again I’m stretching recent to the last twenty years because gently caress me that movie came out in 99?

Also the war was between northern France+England and southern France. We were originally conquered by Normandy, remember, they weren't under foreign occupation, we were until we got assimilated.
Well, it was a war between french speaking nobles. Most of the mercenary groups were german and italian but believe me it did felt like foreign occupation because at the time the guys coming from 20km away may as well have been foreigners.

This is the extraordinary moment a Sky News journalist has an on-air bust-up with a Brexiteer in Whitehall.

Political editor Faisal Islam had just finished reporting to presenter Kay Burley about Theresa May’s marthon Cabinet meetingwhen a protester, wearing a Ukip rosette, shouted “treason”.

Mr Islam took issue with the word. And rather than handing over to Ms Burley, he confronted the man, who had been standing behind him with a placard during his report.

Here is a transcript of the exchange.

Mr Islam: “Why did you just shout 'treason'? How is that helpful?”

Protester: “She is acting against the interests of the country!”

Mr Islam: “She’s doing what she thinks is in the interests of the country. You may disagree with that, but why do you shout ‘treason’?”

Protester: “She’s a traitor. That’s what the word is, look it up in the dictionary, that's what the word means."

Mr Islam: “You think that but other people might say you are [a traitor]... you’re shouting names at the Prime Minister, who is trying to come up with a solution.”

Protester: “The truth hurts, Faisal, the truth hurts.”

Mr Islam: “No, you think it’s the truth but we have politics so people can mediate between differences of opinion. You’re saying, in your opinion, they are traitors. How does that help?”

Protester: “We live in a free country, I am allowed to say that.”

Mr Islam: “Yeah, but how does that help the process of coming to an opinion?”

Protester: “She’s working against the interests of the country. Have you noticed how comfortable she is when she’s with her friends in Brussels? How more comfortable she is when she’s in Europe compared to the place over the road?”

Mr Islam: “I don’t notice that at all. Anyway, I just thought I had to pick you up for the language. Sorry about that, Kay. Some protesters here… it’s become quite normal using that language, and I just thought it was worth checking out exactly why people think it’s OK to call politicians traitors and use words like treason.”

Ms Burley, chortling, remarked: “Faisal’s had his three Shredded Wheat today, hasn’t he?”

Theresa May doesn't seem comfortable in Europe to me. Theresa May doesn't seem comfortable anywhere to me. Our Brexit protester here is obviously out to blame someone else for his nebulous Brexit ideas being physically impossible.

(Larry would be comfortable in Europe though. Especially if he found some good cushions to sit upon. Larry for PM)
