BRIT'S ARE BLITZED!!

Last night at 7pm the Germans started bombing raids all over the country. They have targeted ports, factories and cities. The Germans are calling this barbaric bombing ' blitzkrieg '.

Just when we thought the war wasn't doing to badly, Hitler and his Nazis have ordered all German men over eighteen to work in the German air force, bombing Britain, targeting everything and sparing no-one. We got to talk to eyewitness Polly Parson , who watched the bombing come down on her neighbour's house,

" I was so frightened, I didn't even know what the bombs were at first. They just came down from the sky, like solid rain. It was extremely scary as I saw a bomb go off about twenty feet away, and my neighbour's house went up in flames."
It has been decided by the government that every home shall be supplied with kits for Anderson Shelters, which will help them hide from the bombing. These kits include corregated iron, poles and nails to hold up the structure.

It has been advised that every household should take their children, with food and blankets to their shelters, regardless of if there is bombing or not. So far twelve people have been killed and 49 injured; " It is devasting that the Germans are going ahead with such a dastardly plan but ther is nothing we can do but keep fighting", said the Prime Minister.

And he was right!
In the end there can only be one winner, and that is GREAT BRITAIN!
