But they were absolutely useless.

The British have done more for the advancement of the World and Humanity then any other civilisation in history.

You should be proud and honoured to be British, not knock us.

I assumed you were referring to Jamaica, as it was mentioned in a few posts above yours. If you're going to throw out non-sequiturs, you could at least use the place name you're talking about.

I used that nation
as an example, to a reply to Oliver
On Page 1

It was this:

[For Example
It has People in Jamaica
saying the History of the British Empire upsets them.]

There’s a lot of aboriginal people that still live in huts today so who knows. They must enjoy it.

What did the British do to the Aboriginal?

The English settlers and their descendants expropriated native land and removed the indigenous people by cutting them from their food resources, and engaged in genocidal massacres.


I mean it’s no wonder they want out

Why? "They" did it as well, their country wouldn't exist as it is without their violent past. Having a different picture on money won't change the past. No-one living has any complicity, so they've got nothing to feel guilty for.

Back in 1770 The British were civilised
we could shave.

But the Aboriginal people were primitive
uneducated.


James Cook
was right to Claim it as British

Or Nicky's pathetic Dutch would now own it.
