I have written this before, neither of my grandfathers hid in a shipyard during WWII, both served, neither wore a poppy and neither will I, the absolute guff we get this time of year is mental, I am not offended that a few fans made noise during the minutes silence, but I am offended that when Celtic took the knee boos rang out across dens Park and no one says a thing.

We talk about the freedoms we have being defended by our soldiers, this is a load of garbage, in WWI we defended the self interests of the British Empire, itself something that expanded at the loss of the German Empire, it was a fight between 3 sets of cousins with the Russian Tsar being shot dead, the German Kaiser fleeing to Holland and the British jumping up and down that the German army headed for home following a naval mutiny itself spurred on by a Bolshevik revolution.

Not one British soldier stood on German land between 1914 and 1918, at no time were they ever in the ascendency.

But this doesn’t stop serial idiots and their triumphalism popping up to demand that we honour mistruths as facts.

There was also this pearl of wisdom.

The 1916 uprising was a socialist revolution by means of arms against a belligerent in the greatest battle in history, it was put down but within 6 years 26 counties would be free.

In October 1917 the Soviet Union would follow the IRA’s lead and establish a country which would end colonialism, put a man in space and defeat the Nazis among other things when in 1917 it was a land of peasants.

In 1918, the German working class rebelled against their Kaiser, he abdicated and fled, the war was finished via an armistice and the country who was in the ascendency lost due to rebels who fought in the way the IRA did in Dublin in 1916.

In case you didn’t know Seamy.
