Yay, Scots!

I'm sure the overly-polite English would like to refute the assesment of their terror-threat levels, but they are indubitably concerned about causing a stir. If only the Empire could return to the glory days when any son of a king could be a king......when girls were girls and boys were women and other nations didn't have boats

Us, lose ? Never



I especially liked the NZ and Australian levels, and certainly the scots

P.S. But really, when i first heard of Bush's introduced "alert" levels in the US i imagined the Star trek audio alert sirens going off in all US cities lol.
"National alert level" , t'was quite a good idea, either frighten the own population to make them shut up against surveillance measures, or begin a war ...

Loved it!

Just think of it as "executing a strategic defeat."

The Scots raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to "Let's get
the Bastards". They don't have any other levels..

Haha, love the Scots.

The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France 's white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country's military capability.

You can never be too careful.
