Mmrp. England certainly prevaricated enough under Chamberlin. The British people didn't WANT war. But in the, end, well.... a song from the play "40 Years On": (In Parliament, Chamberlin has just spoken of apeasement. The head of the opposition, Arthur Greenwood, rose to speak...) "Oh speak for England Arthur, for 20 years years of shame. They wriggled out at Munich, they'll wriggle out again. We're pledged to fight for Poland, the time for talking's passed. He [Chamberlin] can take that scrap of paper, and stick it up his ass." [counterpoint] "Lord Halifax is ready, to take off for Berlin. And if we give them Danzig, we might just save our skins. Why should we do the fighting, the Jews will stand to gain. We are the ones who'll suffer, if England fights again." [/counterpoint] "There is no peace with honor, their is no other way There is no faith in Chamberlain the dog has had his day Oh speak for England, Arthur, the night of shame is done Oh speak for England, Arthur, Soon Churchhill's day will come."
