I'm looking at this article on the Guardian website and I find it very suspicious. The photo looks...fishy...but even murkier is the reference to Shropshire.
Let's look at the evidence: I've never been to Shropshire and neither has anyone I know. There are no towns that we can name in Shropshire. I have never seen Shropshire on a map. There are no famous people or teams or businesses from Shropshire. There is no town called Shrop.
The only possible conclusion is that Shropshire is a psyop. It doesn't exist. It is simply a mechanism for inserting stories into the media by our avian overlords. Probably this "flood" is just a cover up of toxin release from a biowarfare facility or something. Expect followup stories next month detailing environmental damage caused by Victorian heavy metals deposits in the released mud etc...

My aunt used to live in Shropshire, we'd visit a lot during the summer holidays. So if it is a psy-op, then my mum is complicit, as she was the one driving and telling us that that's where we were...
I was notified of this story by a friend of mine who also claims to live in a country referred to as Shropshire. What do we need to be told?
The ‘sink hole’ is where our world connects with there’s
I am currently in Shropshire. Well, I thought I was 🤔
Now you've turned my world upside down damn you!
Maybe Shropshire is in Finland?
Briefly lived in Tilstock and Prees as a youngster around 1980, not too far from Whitchurch. We lived there during the worst snow I've experienced in my lifetime ('81?), Tilstock junior school was shut for at least several days, snow drifted up to my waist while aged ~8 and I had to walk around like a saddle-sore cowboy to get around our fields.
Well as no one can agree whether Shrewsbury is pronounced like a small animal or a quiet row then you may be correct although it may make train connections for mid Wales harder if it isn't there!
Oswestry is clearly made up, it's a name that should be used for a pet dragon in a children's book, not a town.
I was born in Bridgnorth which until today I understood was in Shropshire. It's bad enough having to spell out the town (there's no 'E', no I don't know why either), but now i find out I'm from a non-existent county!
Rum do.
The Shropshire Independence Party would have something to say about that!

It's the small animal, unless you're a Barbour wearing landowner (or heir thereof), in which case who cares what the plebs say anyway?
The only possible conclusion is that Shropshire is a psyop.
If it is. It's a pretty poor one, to be fair...
Oswestry
a contraction of EastWestBury - everywhere but nowhere. Demonstration Shropshire’s liminal nature, a thin ghostly overlay of another dimension across ours
legend tells of a queen of this parallel dimension who escaped and overthrew the leaders of our dimension - claiming it as the constituency of her South-West-North Folk ….. for a period of time that can only be measured in lettuces

I clearly remember the winter of ‘81/82 🥶, something like -25’C recorded up the road at RAF Shawbury, which used to be in Shropshire, though regrettably, no more. We had numerous pipe bursts, messy business, but we seemed to survive without it being headline news, except in the legendary ‘Not the Shropshire News’.
The air base isn't in Shropshire any more? Oh, sure, now you're saying that the government can just insert and remove airfields into "Shropshire" at its will. More evidence that Shropshire is a political, not geographic, device. How stupid and gullible does the government think we are?

Tilstock, Press and Whitchurch are obviously made up names that sound vaguely English and plausible but you can't place them in any particular part of the country. It's shocking how this forum has been invaded by Shropshire Disinformation Bots.
WAKE UP SHEEPLE! DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!!

Only in books with sheep botherers with straw in their mouths wandering round in ths old clothing .
Well speaking as a Salop’ian …. from what used to be the Birthplace of Industry.
Did all the water in the canal go down the hole? Into the film studio obviously - must have made a mess of the cameras. Maybe someone had found out the truth and was about to make a (slow) break for it on a canal boat Truman Show stylee and they had to pull to plug to stop them.
Well speaking as a Salop’ian
Yet more evidence. If you're from Yorkshire you're a Yorkshireman, Cumbria a Cumbrian etc. So how do "they" get Salopian from Shropshire? It's like they're not even trying to conceal their extraterrestrial origins! "The Salopians" sound like the baddies in a Star Trek episode. They are clearly from the Crab Nebula or some such. This one has carelessly let his disguise slip.
. There is no town called Shrop.

Its also called Salopshire.
I know that 😎 Play the game!
Edit. I often hear Salop as interchangeable with Shropshire, but not Salopshire?
Sorry. I'm sure I've seen it on old maps. But yeah, I think Salop means the same as Shropshire.
It must have existed at some point anyway, otherwise we wouldn't have the Olympics!
Did all the water in the canal go down the hole?
One source in the article says it's a sinkhole, which suggests it disappeared into the ground and ne source suggests it's all in the field next door, which is less sinkhole and more breach. Who knows, it's all witchcraft, cos only weird folk live on narrowboats. Stay away from them and their familiars, heed me! They always have scruffy familiars...
This pic shows where the water has gone I think...
I thought Shropshire was behind the Nationwide at Swindon. Along with everywhere else in the Universe.
🙂
Six weeks ago Mrs Cfsb and I, had walked or ridden to the top of over 100 of the hills over 1000feet in Shropshire. Where have the remaining 90 or so gone ?
I’m pleased with this story, it has enabled me to explain to my wife that our two weeks on the Lancaster Canal could have been worse!*
*see separate thread.
Is it also part of the psyops to call what is clearly a collapse of a bank alongside a canal a "sink hole".
Shropshire Blue Cheese?

The BBC's impeccably accurate reporter has now blamed somebody else:
Onsite engineers, from the Canal and River Trust, have said that earlier descriptions from emergency services of a "sinkhole" were not accurate to describe what had happened.
"George, we need help, all the narrowboats (and water) have fallen into a sinkhole" is a little different to "George , we need help, all the narrowboats have drifted into the field next door"
But yeah, I think Salop means the same as Shropshire.
Even the name "Salop" is a sick joke by the establishment against us. The ultrarich, powerful and royalty have since 1066 spoken French among themselves, which is why we have the word mortgage in finance, why French was always the language of diplomacy, why the Royals tsay "Dieu et mon droit"...
The word "Salope" means "sl*t" on French, derived from the word "sale" meaning dirty. So on one level, it's a parasitic being that does nothing - but more profoundly it's an indication that Salop/Shropshire is where the "dirty work" happens...like bioweapons research.
Is it a coincidence that they changed the name of the county to Shropshire *exactly* at the time when more and more people ourside the elite were learning French thanks to the the introduction of comprehensive education? I don't think so! The public school elite must have been terrified!
Well, Oxbridge scum, I've got some French words for you and your sick Shropshire scheme: J'ACCUSE!
Shropshire Blue Cheese?
Nope....
"The cheese was first made in the 1970s at the Castle Stuart dairy in Inverness, Scotland by Andy Williamson, a cheesemaker who had trained in the making of Stilton cheese in Nottinghamshire. The cheese was first known as 'Inverness-shire Blue' or 'Blue Stuart', but was eventually marketed as 'Shropshire Blue', a name chosen to help increase its popularity, despite it having no link to the county of Shropshire".
The word "Salope" means "sl*t" on French, derived from the word "sale" meaning dirty.
I cannot emphasise enough how much the French exchange students loved the fact there was a business called Salop Caravans about 400m away from my school
Wem. It's like they started to name a place but then ran out of enthusiasm.

And then overcompensated in the other direction with "Much Wenlock".
Bit gnarly at the top.
What? So Carlisle Utd were dumped out of the early stages of the 2022 League Cup by fake news? And the 3 points lost easter 2024??
So what is/was Croud Meadow? Nothing speaks of fake history like a canal - that's conveniently disappeared.
Is this something to do with Westmorland? It's got their prints all over it.
Southern subterfuge.........
Carlisle United? Who are they?!?
Humberside has entered the chat 😆
^^^ … but what happened to ball recovery at the Gay Meadow?
The ‘sink hole’ is where our world connects with there’s
Most who've visited can't say much beyond it's a world a where's from this one's.

Are you trying to hurt my brain on purpose? 😬
