David Starkey on the British Empire
|
He’s such a repugnant unabashed racist, he should never be allowed a platform to spew his bile again.
Darren Grimes shows himself to be a prize racism enabling twat again in the process, awful people. |
He's a moron.
There's plenty of countries on this earth that would disagree that the empire only had a few 'downsides'. It was a vicious regime that left it's scars on history and upon the people it trampled on. Too many people celebrate the empire as this crowning glory for Britain when it should be one of our biggest shames. |

Starkey has had to Resign from his fellowship

Starkey is a really extreme awful man.

There's no excuse for his racist comments. The Empire had more than a "few downsides", but to be fair it's a bit of a case of "what have the Romans ever done for us"

Cambridge University backs academic who tweeted 'White Lives Don't Matter" And then promptly promoted her We love equality Looks like our Dave should have been working for that uni |

‘White loves don’t matter, as white lives’
As in, white lives have never had to fight to the right to be recognised or be considered as equal, or worry about their stance in society. If you’re gonna quote, at least use full ones. |
that was clearly not a one off comment, it rolled of the tongue too easily. So, the question I would ask is why have his colleagues let him get away with it for years

He does have a right to his view. Even if it's this wrong.

...’...an awful lot of damn blacks in Africa and Britain, a lot of them survived...’...jeez, that right there is a silly old racist...
|
Darren is a crybaby, he got caught out now he’s playing the victim, he’s a failed hairdressing student who’s found a niche in the market that appeals to his incessant need for attention and approval, I can’t wait until he’s chucked back into irrelevance where he belongs.

So establishments and organisations can only cut ties with people if they're alive...but if a long dead benefactor they're beholden to honour that persons image in marble or bronze without question?

Let's hope he is just clearing his diaries and will be back on Qt soon. By God they need him
|
You wont see him on QT again. Unless its a special with Nick Griffin, Laurence Fox and Tommy Robinson.
I suppose that would be dream line up eh? :wink: |
Good news, hopefully his career is done.
