@JohnCleese And that 95% of the English/British population were little more than slaves until relatively recently.

I suspect dear Lenny thinks that Britain invented slavery And that the Pryramids were presumably built by volunteers
The British Patriot@TheBritLad

Lenny Henry wants Britain to cough up £18 trillion in reparations because 'all black British people personally deserve money for the effects of slavery.' Funny how he skips the part where Britain was the first major power to ban the slave trade in 1807, then sent the Royal Navy's West Africa Squadron to patrol the coast for decades. They seized 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 Africans .. at the cost of British sailors' lives and huge expense. Britain didn't just stop its own involvement; it actively fought to end the trade globally. Meanwhile, in Africa today (per the Global Slavery Index), countries like Eritrea, Mauritania, South Sudan, Nigeria and others still have some of the world's highest rates of modern slavery .. forced labour, child soldiers, hereditary servitude, trafficking. Millions trapped right now. And Lenny's own roots? Jamaica (his parents' homeland). It still has notable modern slavery issues too, including forced labour and exploitation. So... demanding trillions from British taxpayers (including black Brits) for 200-year-old history, while African and Caribbean nations haven't fully confronted slavery's continuation on their own soil? That's not justice. That's selective outrage and hypocrisy. Focus on ending slavery today everywhere .. not guilt-tripping one country that helped stop it yesterday.

@Harvey4Jan People who lose their hair early never seem to age! So unfair but happy birthday to him nevertheless.

@archer_rs How Cameron wanders around, apparently, without a care in the world, is beyond me. He's the start of so many issues.

Unpopular opinion. PM Starmer is doing a reasonable job in the UK when one considers the basket case he inherited. People have quickly forgotten Johnson, Truss and the biggest mistake of all, Brexit.

Just saw this and was about to post something amusingly ironic along the lines of : I'm sure Trump will be magnanimous in his response to a former foe. Then I saw his response and even my jaw hit the floor. Bush: "He helped prevent another terrorist attack on US soil." Obama: "One of the finest directors in the history of the FBI" Trump: "I'm glad he's dead." The current President of The United States is not a normal human being. He's a vicious, crude, unhinged cunt of a man.

@Heccles94 This is doing the rounds again, but sadly, it's no longer valid.

Return your unwanted Reform UK flyers to this address and it costs them £2.50 a pop. Pop this address on an envelope with the flyer in, and pop it in a post box! The more we return, the less they will send!

@poxesfoxes Rather unfair to judge a country's population by the behaviour of its mad leaders.

Ambassador Warren Stephens
I met with MP @Nigel_Farage at the Embassy to hear his perspectives on the current status of the U.S.-UK relationship. Nigel has great respect for @POTUS @RealDonaldTrump and the United States. He is particularly fond of the Trump administration’s unwavering commitment to peace through strength. I look forward to working with Nigel to advance the security and prosperity of our countries.

@archivetvmus71 I lived in Henley-on-Thames in the 90s, where Peter Davison also lived. One day I was driving up Gravel Hill to the pool, as he was driving down. I misjudged the distance between us and *just* managed to squeeze past. He pulled exactly the same face as he does in that clip!

Doctor Who: The Caves of Androzani - Part Three (15th March 1984). Now that's what I call a cliffhanger.

The competition between some (not all) of the @BBCr4today presenters to see who can be rudest and smart-arsest with government ministers (though rarely Farage and Co) might be one of the reasons they are losing so many listeners. @patmcfaddenmp did well there not to say “if it’s so f-ing easy why don’t you give it a go one day Amol?” Also wonder whether the “morning ministerial round” has had its day. Pat better than most at covering all issues but often such a waste of time to have Minister for X answering Qs on issues ABCD and E (usually what’s big in the right wing rags) followed by one Q on the thing they actually know about.

So Trump has landed himself in the shit and now is looking to countries and organisations he's been slagging off for years to get him out of a hole. Increasingly desperate and pathetic bbc.co.uk/news/live/cx2l…

@labour_history IIRC they did a radio sequel and a BBC4 retrospective. But I agree it was a magnificent series.

Odd #SilentWitness series. Out of sequence (hence Jack's inconsistent beard status and the lack of jeopardy when he ended up in the jug - we all knew he got out), a finale that wasn't (odd voiceovers and all) + lazy criticism of AI. Thank God for Sean Gilder. Make him a regular.

Rachel Reeves claims she was “unaware” of Khatana’s abhorrent views. That’s inconceivable. She described him as a friend and met him dozens of times in the last decade. Reeves indulged his abhorrent views for votes. She owes the country an explanation.

Arshad Khatana has the most abhorrent and shocking views. So why has Rachel Reeves been “friends” with this fanatic for over a decade? Why, as Chancellor, is she going round his house for lunch?

How many antiques have been ruined while their owners stand in an #AntiquesRoadshow valuation queue in the pouring rain?
