After the Luftwaffe had failed to gain air superiority,. Because the RAF stopped them

Really we have come full circle, with you proving what you set out to disprove in the first place

which wouldnt have been a problem for Germany if it had had air superiority to protect a fleet of unarmed barges crossing.

Which bit of even without any opposition did you not understand? The limitation was the number of barges available, the rate at which they could cross and re-cross the channel (assuming they were not delayed by bad weather) and the ability to load and unload them fast enough.

IIRC they assembled a large-ish number of barges, which then became handy bombing targets for us, and many were destroyed.

They had enough as it transpired.

I don?t. There just isn't the same level of support for leaving the EU in the political party that dominates the government in very many of the other EU countries that aren't net receivers of lots of money from the EU and few with any party as credible as UKIP in many of them either. Yes, there are certainly some very hard right parties with a lot of public support in some of the countries like Austria, but it isn't very clear how many of those countries do want to leave the EU. Plenty of them don?t like the EU freedom of movement of EU citizens policy, but plenty of them do like that too.

She was, but she also was a patriot, and had some sense of noblesse oblige.

Just some 'artistic' snipping you can move along now. :)
