Corrected entry: The movie is supposed to be set in 1983. But at several occasions it appears as though the Falklands War was ongoing at the moment. Since that was fought in 1982, it doesn't add up.
This Is England (2006)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Shane Meadows
Starring: Stephen Graham, Jo Hartley, Thomas Turgoose, Andrew Shim
Factual error: The movie is set in 1983, but small satellite dishes seen attached to homes were only available around 1989 when Sky was introduced, and the even smaller sizes visible on some homes did not exist until many years later.
Chosen answer: I believe he may think that Combo is just joking with him in a way that he was earlier in the film when he talks about him being black.
In my opinion, I think that it is because Milky has started to understand the reason's for Combo's anger - that he is jealous of Milky's perfect family set - up. Milky laughs because he finds it absurd that jealousy is the reason behind Combo's increasing anger towards him in this scene and may have been behind his aggressive behaviours all along.It is almost child-like and perhaps Milky is aware that he looks like the better person in the situation. He knows Combo knows this too.

Correction: What you've got to remember is that the Cold War was an ongoing state of political, military and economic tension during this time (1945-1991), so they could have been on about that on the radio.
