You cannot buy anything from me against me will. By definition a sale/purchase requires offer and acceptance. If it's against my will then either the offer or the acceptance was missing, in which case I'd call it theft.

Yes, that's really rather the point.

As was the nuclear bomb, which we sold to the Americans after the war to pay our debts for freeing Europe. Something that Europe, particularly France, refused to contribute to despite hoarding their Gold safely away well before Germany invaded.

Everybody is equal but some are more equal than others.

I'll bear that in mind when I "buy" your car for £0.00 [B]against your will.

OK. Whose is this one?

What a coincidence, that's exactly how the Americans took the nuclear tech that we (and the Canadians) contributed to - against our will.

What about balaklavas?

We should annex it back from Russia.

A sale is a sale even if the price is £0.00

Only if you get an invoice. They took it. Nice try though.

A sale of 0 also doesn’t pay off any debt, as you claimed.

Easy tiger, I’m just asking you to cite what you are claiming to be a fact.

You should read both of your links more closely. Both these plus the Wiki links show the clear trail - the U.K. provided cooperation during the wartime development, the US then stiffed the Brits (and Canadians) just after the war by making the tech the US property, and then in the 1950’s the USA offers to sell their nukes to the U.K. as long as the U.K. reconfigured it’s defence.

In no instance does it show what you claim - that the U.K. ever sold nuclear tech to the USA.

Which, of course, calls into question the validity of the rest of your post.

So the answer is “no”, then, presumably because it isn’t true.

Thanks.

No, not our contribution during the war. You clearly said “sold to the Americans after the war”.

Can you cite this transaction?

??

Do you have a cite for that? I have a vague recollection of the USA dropping something on Japan (twice) during the war, so it seems odd that we should sell them something that they already had.
