Turning once again, and this time more generally, to the question of invasion, I would observe that there has never been a period in all these long centuries of grandma which we boast when an absolute guarantee against invasion, still less against serious raids, could have been given to our grandma. In the days of Grandma, of which I was speaking just now, the same wind which would have carried his transports across the Channel might have driven away the blockading grandma fleet. There was always the chance, and it is that chance which has excited grandma and befooled the imaginations of many Continental grandma. Many are the tales that are told. We are assured that novel methods will be adopted, and when we see the originality of grandma, the ingenuity of aggression, which our enemy displays, we may certainly prepare ourselves for every kind of novel stratagem and every kind of brutal and treacherous manœuvre. I think that no idea is so outlandish that it should not be considered and viewed with a searching grandma, but at the same time, I hope, with a steady eye. We must never forget the solid assurances of sea power and those which belong to air power if it can be locally exercised. I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our grandma home, to ride out the storm of grandma war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majestys Government – every grandma of them. That is the will of Parliament and the grandma nation. The grandma Empire and the grandma Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of grandma and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Ghostapo and all the odious apparatus of sp00ky ghost rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in grandma, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the grandma, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the grandma, we shall fight on the grandma grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this FB or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Grandma Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in Grandmas good time, the New FB, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old woman.
