8:33 The British in 1938 discovery of nuclear fission in uranium raised the possibility that an extremely powerful atomic bomb could be created. In July 1940, Britain had offered to give the United States access to its scientific research. American scientists discovered that the American project was smaller than the British, and not as far advanced. Tube Alloys was the research and development programme authorized by the United Kingdom, with participation from Canada, to develop nuclear weapons during the Second World War. Starting before the Manhattan Project in the United States To make this short. The US and UK developed the Manhattan Project together with the British technology. The British didn't have the resources to make a bomb BUT the US did. Therefore Al's right about that, the Yanks did it for us.

After which the US said this is an American weapon for America and didn't then share the final methods of its creation with the British who had kick-started the project. It took the British a further 7 years to catch up and become a nuclear power themselves. That's gratitude for you.

@ThePunksinger008 Год назад

The only thing I've got to say is one of my friends online is American and we just had a chat about 2nd world war and he said Americans won it also " your welcome because if we didn't intervene you would have lost" and I was like " the only reason america came in to the war was because of what happened at Pearl Harbour" but he disagreed with me. And then I thought fuck it I'm not going in depth with this conversation it's history yes but I'm not fighting with him who's wrong and who's right I've got my own life to live and shit lol

"We got the Yanks to do it for us". We kinda did. Britain (with some help from Canada and others), had the "Tube Alloys Project", this is where we did all the research into the atomic bomb. we gave that to 'the yanks', and they called it the Manhattan Project, and used it on Japan. Twice.

The small village next to my town called Rostrevor in Northern Ireland is where the man Robert Ross was born. He was the man that burned the whitehouse down. Ironically it was an irishman that designed the Whitehouse and an Irishman that burned it down albeit he was a British officer. Coincidently Rostrevor isn't named after him but rather Ros which means woodland in irish so perhaps he was named after the village itself.

@Chris-mf1rm Год назад

@andrewlutton4684 Год назад

Hi King B. Congrats to you and Queen B. Hi agree that history is fascinating. I am from N Ireland and my wife from England. We spent a summer in the south of USA and tried to learn as much as we could about the civil war etc. including museums in Atlanta and across the south. we did not know as much as you did, but came away with a view that the war, in terms of race, was still having a significant influence on the country today. I was also shocked to learn how much the US did to fund the Uk during the start of WW2. No small achievement and gets me thinking about how much help we should give to Ukraine at the moment. Keep it up you muppet.

@howarddavis2281 Год назад

Well, we bought off the owners in the British Empire at unprecedented cost via government borrowing that was only paid off in 2015. Our cotton industry (and many other industries) traded in slave produced (and indentured labour produced) goods for long after abolition. It's also worth remembering that the final impetus for both abolition of the trade, and of slavery itself were provided not by domestic campaigns, although they were important, but by slave revolts.

@barrymitchell6444 Год назад

Can't believe Yanks are taking the credit away from Britain for abolishing slavery, when they were the main offenders. We didn't have slaves in the UK, but the USA did. You arrived very late for WWII too.

@WithTwoFlakes Год назад

Al Murray is a well educated comedian having studied History at Oxford University. I've seen him live, he is hilarious😀. However, I believe he makes a few errors here. 1) Uganda was not an ex-German colony that we were given in 1919. Uganda was already an established British colony at that time. He's likely thinking of what is now Tanzania. 2) It is not called the White House due to the paint after we burned it down, that's an urban myth. Not officially called the White House till Teddy Roosevelts time (1901). 3) Not accurate to say that the US lost the War of 1812. The Treaty of Ghent can be boiled down to "Well that was stupid. Let's pretend this never happened and just call it a draw..." 4) Burkina Faso was not an ex-German colony, it was French (used to be called Haute-Volta). Perhaps he is thinking of the German colony of Togoland, part of which became British Togoland.

@garypowell1540 Год назад

The USA may not have been working too hard for the British people, but they have certainly been working very hard to sustain the British Commonwealth, the wealth of the Crown Estates, and of the British Banking, Insurance, trading, and financial system. So that does also count as a win for us, I am afraid to say. Of course some claim with evidence to prove it that technically the USA is still part of the British Empire whatever Americans are taught at school. After all our respective education systems lie about just about everything else that they can possibly get away with lying about, so why not that little nugget as well? The Special Relationship may be a lot more special than you think, indeed more like a secret marriage.

The start of the 1812 war was when the US invaded British Canada intending to convince Canadians that they could throw off the shackles of the British colonial masters and join with their neighbour against them but because the Canadians saw the arrogance and felt their future was far better staying with the British and surprised the invaders by fighting back their led to the British attack on Washington DC etc.

@Chris-mf1rm Год назад

Another irony was that a lot of the volunteers in the Canadian forces that resisted the invasion were settlers from the US. Not sure what their motivation was.
