Oh yeah, those fluffy Vikings; Henry VIII chopping a couple of his wives' heads off, so sweet; those World Wars are positively chirpy!

The stuff about the British Empire doesn't make me uncomfortable, I don't care. It's boring, and would kill anyone's interest in History. If that stuff is gonna be taught, lump it into to "Citizenship Studies" or "General Studies", or post-compulsory education.
