Anything can be invaded successfully if the whole world was against it, otherwise I'd have to say Britain's pretty much secure. Except from the terrible might of the Shetland Islands.
Nato command, Europe, Usa,Austria, Trident nuclear system, one of the best trained armys in the world which has won every conflict that it has been in since the F***kin romans,God, The Queen, The SAS, One of the best trained navys in the world, One of the most technologically advanced and best trained Airfoces, An entire nation who would fight to the death to protect it, Some of the tuffest sea crossing conditions in the world, Bad Weather, Some of the most famous generals in history and the stratigical heratige that it brings, One of the most innovative nations (we invented everything in the last 40 years and most of the modern battle tatics other than shock and awe which dosen't work for shit america two wars you havn't won vientnam and iraq), Stiff upper lip, The Scottish ( the only thing there really good at which is beating stuff up) , tea and ale

Even though a lot of the population of Britain can be total gits with no apparent respect for anything, BlackHat is totally correct in that we would fight to the death to protect our country. Do you know why? Because those total gits despise the rest of the world more. Then there's the others that genuinely care.
You could try to invade would-be invaders, but you'd get bored when you find you can't do what we can and withstand the awesome might of our vomity weather and mentally-challenged soap operas.

"Yes, but it will be hard."
I really couldn't be bothered to read all ten pages of this thread, so I'll just stick with this: it's really hard to sail troops over the English channel without them getting sunk by all those boats we seem to have. Nazi Germany stood the best chance, and I think they only got Jersey.

Not to start a flame war, but Navy Seals are better than the SAS. The U.S. airforce is better than yours. The U.S. Army is of larger force and also better trained. I could go on and on but that just invites a flame war. Oh, and when I see British soldiers baynet charging companies of soldiers when they stand no chance of winning, like, say the Japanese did in WWII, then you can that you would die for your country. Oh, and in case you didn't know, we declared Victory in Iraq over 4 years ago.BlackHat said:
This is true but the Hitler's army still managed to actually invade Russia.Zombie Badger said:
Also, Canadians burning down the White House doesn't make Canada uninvadable.
why would you want to? England has nothing to offer. We have some brilliant scenery but basically if you are seeking to expand your influence over people, forget the English, 98% of the population are fit only for extermination, a more annoying bunch of miserable boring stupid wastes of resources you would be hard pressed to find. Invading them would only make you look bad on a military scale.
I may just point out I'm English to justify my claim.

yeah, the whole 'allies' thing would be pivotal to our survival... as long as we keep two or three major allies, i think we're pretty much invulnerable. The fact we're an island means that we would be very expensive to attack, plus our navy would kick the living daylights out of most others. But why do you want a tiny, cold, wet, otherwise useless piece of land anyway?
It seems that all of the posters here are fixated on the physical aspect of a 'invasion', while tanks, planes, ships and troops would be part of any action to due so they would only be final stages of such.
It is generally considered that most modern battles will be won or lost by a handful of techs and a server room destablising such things as money transfers and telecoms.
Also any country could be affected because the battlefield would now be more digital, so it is not a case of how has the most troops or nukes but which country has the most computer geeks.
but in answers to the question 'why would you want too?'

america could do it. my reasoning? we're america.
would america do it? no. my reasoning? we like britain.
why do people say america would help? we didn't join WWII till it was almost over. and that was because we were bombed. nah, i don't think we'd give a sweet shit if britain was under supreme stress like that.
and who wants to kill britain? germany tried it...twice? i don't know much about WWI,and who germany was fighting right then. back on topic,i don't think many would try. china,israel (kinda),USA, and europe are untouchable nowadays. if all these countries and continent teamed up...dear god,we'd destroy anyone who apposed us.

I think that if any country invaded, they'd hand it back. The chavs would drive them insane after two minutes. We've developed a natural immunity.
