on the contrary- the British government quickly seized anything not nailed down (well enough) and declared their hoards as the British museum. various wastelanders request access to their collections of canned goods and shotgun shells and the irradiated skeletons of their loved ones only to be rebuked on the basis of historical preservation.

due to a technicality of british law, everywhere is actually the british museum, and native cultures have simply been in wrongful possession of artifacts god mistakenly placed in what the locals colourfully describe as "other countries"

Hidden atop a tree-covered hill, Greenwich Observatory is home to a small group of scholars. Largely unaffected by the chaos below, these quiet monks preserve as much of the Old Knowledge as they can while protecting it from those who would seek it out to wage technological war once more. Their days are spent in quiet contemplation of the movement of the heavenly bodies, while they wait for the Great Planetary Convergence that will indicate when Brexit has finally happened.

With no Empire to supply new sources to loot from, all of the museums are in open warfare attempting to loot each other. The Soanes Collection are a wildcard guerrilla outfit.

While googling the opinions of BJP on the Labour Party I've come across this wonderful wikipedia article: Illegal immigration to India

Albeit better than it's previous name, Illegal Bangladeshis living in India. The talk page has some rather fun discussion.

Do read the actual letter too, it's magic.

e.g.

quote:

On Kashmir issue the special status afforded to the majority Muslim population was in breach of the equality strands [sic] we are used to in this country and yet a majority of the Labour MP's wrote to condemn the equalisation measures now put in place by the Indian government.

"Jeremy Corbyn has not apologized to the Jewish community after recent events!"
"What recent events?"
"He didn't apologize."
"For what?"
"He refused."


EDIT: or replace "apologize" with "do something to tackle the antisemitism within party". Then make the next headline about how Labour keeps denying the problem, repeat.
