An emotional 100-year-old war veteran heartbreakingly declared that winning World War II ‘wasn’t worth it’ due to the state of the country at the moment.

Alec Penstone appeared on Good Morning Britain joined by musicians the D Day Darlings, who surprised him with a performance ahead of Remembrance Day week.


Asked by host Kate Garraway what Remembrance Sunday meant to him, war veteran Alec emotionally described how it felt as though winning the war was ‘not worth’ the sacrifice of how the country had turned out today.

Alec said: “My message is, I can see in my mind's eye those rows and rows of white stones and all the hundreds of my friends who gave their lives, for what? The country of today?

“No, I'm sorry - but the sacrifice wasn't worth the result of what it is now.”

Alec continued: “What we fought for was our freedom, but now it's a darn sight worse than when I fought for it.”

The show’s presenters were stunned by his answers with Kate consoling him: “Alec, I'm sorry you feel like that and I want you to know that all the generations that have come since, including me and my children, are so grateful for your bravery and all the other service personnel.

“It's our job now to make it the country that you fought for, and we will do.”

Alec was just 15 when war broke out in 1939. He volunteered as a messenger throughout the Blitz and spent his teenage years “pulling bodies out of bombed buildings.”

He went on to join the Navy after promising his father he wouldn’t serve on the front lines due to the horrors he had witnessed in WW1.

He served on submarines and on an aircraft carrier and took part in the Arctic Convoys to Russia, before taking part in the D-Day landings.

The countless wars was to make money. BMW i believe was a aero engine manufacturer. They elites on losing side also made money.

The countless wars was to make money.

Ww1 already almost bankrupted the British empire and it left them in debt to the US.

the medals for what? For show only

The war not only punishes the two involved parties severely with heavy damaged to building, infrastructure, injuries and death but also allows their allies to exploit the situation for monetary gain.

The greatest generation that ever served, unlike all the low T soy boys and Tiktok cunts we have now

The losers in WWII had their debts written off no? That is why they both emerged more stronger economically.

Germany and Japan are effectively vassal states of the US. All work their people do have gone to enrich the US Jew financial system

The entire NWO system were all belonged to the Jews. What Hitler did was to liberate the goyims from the NWO but he failed in the end

Not only in the UK, the US too with Trump as president.

Glanced through the content there is not a single issue involving civil rights.

Every single order is geared towards taking the country back to normalcy where borders are secure, hard fought women's rights are defended and meritocracy is re-established as the primary factor for decisions made at the workplace.

Thank goodness Trump won or the US would be in a worse shit hole that the UK is in right now.

I want to agree with you, so I googled using terms such as "Trump is protecting civil rights", "Trump is defending freedom of speech", "Trump is protecting women's rights". The below are just some of the search results that turned up. All pretty much showed the same thing.

Civil rights : Through executive orders, regulatory rollbacks, and court fights, the Trump administration is not only dismantling civil rights protections—it is turning the laws written to protect marginalized groups into tools of oppression. https://nonprofitquarterly.org/how-...rights-law-and-how-nonprofits-can-fight-back/

Freedom of speech, more than half (55%) of Americans would describe the current state of freedom of speech in the U.S. as somewhat or very bad. (Yougov survey - https://today.yougov.com/politics/a...-speech-growing-share-say-rights-eroding-poll).

Women's right, since Inauguration Day, women have been hurt by the Trump administration. Much of the progress that women have made in the past 100 years has now been dismantled (National Organization for Women - https://now.org/media-center/press-...arming-women-with-almost-100-policy-mandates/)
And the list goes on.

You could easily find thousands of links to articles written in the same vein but that does not make them true because they all come from similar sources ie the NGOs and civil rights groups that have been feeding off the progressive gravy train of prior progressive administrations. The vast majority of those who write these articles live in relative luxury totally divorced from the problems their advocacy creates.

The true test comes when you ask yourself how you would behave in the following situations :

1. If you have a teenage daughter that you love and cherish would you want a 45 year old man who thinks he's a woman to have the right to walk into her changing room while she's naked?

2. If you're starting a company and have a budget to hire 10 people would you hire the 10 best that apply or would ensure that there's at least 2 Malays, 1 Indian on your payroll despite them not being part of the top 10?

3. If you were pro open borders would you be willing to personally provide housing, food and finance to someone who just walked into the country from a crime riddled shit hole?

ETC ETC.

Here's a bio of Zane Micheal, author of the first link in your list. I rest my case.
