<<Many of them were pissed off at the fact that we were neutral during the war. The are totally overlooking the fact that we were neutral because we were never invaded. If Norway and Denmark hadn't been invaded they would most likely have been neutral too.>>

 

UK was not invaded since 1066. We should have let the Nazis march through Europe, kept our nose out of it, saved alot of our lives. ::

Heard an interesting interview on the radio with claudette colbin who was arrested and convicted of refusing to give up her seat months before parks, and was initially taken up by the civil rights movement. They dropped her for several reasons-too young and outspoken, she got pregnant against her will and she was seen as too black!. Parks only did what other people had done before and three other women took the bus compnay to court to have segregation declared unconstitiutional. Colbin did not get invited to the 25th aniversary of the boycott of the buses, shame. Parks was light skined and quiet, a 'good darkie' in the eyes of white america.

Hi!

 

How did the swedes get the ball bearings to UK?

 

They were shipped. Most likely from Gothenburg as that was (is) where they were made. Most of the ships was Brittish but also a fair number of Swedish seamen lost their lives on the North Sea.
