Just as a matter of interest how do you think the West rose to power to give you the privileged life you now have, by being nice? I suppose you think the world would be better run by Gandi or Mandella I suppose because it's only white Christians who seek power and dominance - yeah right.
If you can't accept what people like Churchill did to keep us as a nation free was so bad how a about a year with the Taliban or a recreation of life with the Hitlers or life on the dole in Gandi's India would suit you more.
The world moves on as does humanity, you simply cannot impose modern ideals on previous generations. People react to the conditions of the day and the world of the 1940's was a very different and dangerous place. I'm more than happy we no longer have an Empire, doesn't mean I have to apologies for what previous generations did for what they felt were the right reasons at the time. In fact I'm very proud of the British Empire that in the opinion gave the world far more positives than negatives, but hey why not moan for the sake of it.
I'll tell you what let's all seek reparation from the Zulu's - they were a rum lot of barbaric, imperialistic, Fascist, genocidal nutters - or would you say innocent, peace loving little chaps just defending themselves against the great white queen. I await your collection of left wing cliches.
People like some on here never spot the irony that thanks to people like Churchill they are in the position to be able to criticise people like Churchill.
Joey Barton would love this
On the Wakefield forum most posters think you are clueless. I have no opinion on that as i am unaware of all the ins and outs. HOWEVER,
when it comes to History and politics you are absolutely clueless.
To blame Ghandi for millions of deaths at the time of independence and partition is hilarious.
The seeds for ethnic and religious rivalries in the indian sub continent had been fomented by the British for decades thus laying the basis for the bloodshed that ensued.
