@drchrisnewton Its not humour anymore, because if it is why aren't the other parties candidates running? Then it would actually be unbiased humour against all of the political establishment.This reeks of a setup by the other parties and makes the public a laughing stock as well. They despise us

🇬🇧 THEY TOLD YOU A STORY. 🇬🇧

Colonisers. Slavers. Oppressors. And you were supposed to feel ashamed.

Not for what you done... But for WHO YOU ARE. 🇬🇧

So we tested it. Britain wrote everything down, so we opened the books. 📖

Turns out fewer than 1 man in 10 could vote in the year Britain banned the slave trade. No woman could. Your ancestors could hang for stealing a sheep, get shipped across the world for petty theft, or go down a mine at 8 years old. In Manchester, the average age of death in a labouring family was 17.

They weren't running the slave trade. They were underneath it too.

Which is what makes what happened next worth knowing.

In 1772 an enslaved man named James Somerset walked free from an English court, because English law couldn't hold a slave.

In 1791, 300,000 families just stopped buying slave sugar. No march, no riot, just a decision made at 300,000 kitchen tables.

In 1792, 519 petitions carrying 390,000 names hit Parliament, most signed by people who couldn't vote themselves.

In 1807, Britain banned the trade.

Then the slave owners sent Britain a bill for the 800,000 people they still held. 💷 £20 million. About 40% of the entire government budget at the time.

The Treasury says it wasn't paid off until 2015. So if your family paid British tax before then, they helped buy 800,000 people their freedom.

From 1808 the Royal Navy spent 60 years hunting slave ships at sea: 1,600 stopped, 150,000 people freed, and 1,600 British sailors dead, mostly of disease, buried thousands of miles from home. ⚓

In 1816 they ended two centuries of Barbary corsairs enslaving Europeans.

In 1896 a war that lasted 38 minutes ended slavery in Zanzibar. 🇹🇿

Almost every country on Earth outlaws slavery today.

That fight was paid for largely at British expense, by British hands.🇬🇧

So why haven't you heard any of this?

Because within living memory, someone rewrote the story. You got taught the crime. Not the cure.

The powerful exploited the world. They exploited their own people first. It was those people who ended slavery. 🇬🇧

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

History got rewritten once, in living memory, by no one who was ever named or held to account.

We are ordinary people doing what ordinary people have always done. Opening the books. Refusing to look away.

This is how we fight back. Fact by fact. Story by story. Name by name.

We are the home of British heroes. There is a place for you in it.

If you can afford to support what we do: https://t.co/rih7iKwnvf

Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

@AndyRejoinEU Another meat puppet that the system will expel at some point in the near the future

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@andyburnham Yeah for you to create more quangos and to siphon money into your pockets and your mates pockets! No one voted for that, God I think it is time for a genuine revolution in this country. The leadership of this country are doing their best to destroy it, why I do not know?

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@PolitlcsUK Don't fall for that one, I voted for the Senedd back in 1999 foolishly thinking devolution would help Wales, it has crippled us our NHS is far worse than England's the only thing it has done is create thousands of quangos to siphon money into even more corruption. Don't do it!!

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@narindertweets He's 'deeply unlikeable', you are really not self aware are you? The reason you dislike him is because he says what the general public is thinking and not what a leftist champagne socialist media bubble 'thinks'.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@terrychristian You were 16 when we had the same Heatwave back in 1976. I was 6 and I remember it vividly because I broke my arm playing the Bionic man and spent it in an itchy cast. I believe in some of the science but until India, China, USA & Russia follow suit net zero will cripple us.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@AmericaPapaBear Probably a middle class Londoner being a fucking tool. We have to deal with these twats all the time.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@MrJamesMay @narindertweets I think the world may be healing.

@lowles_nick

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@narindertweets @UKLabour @TheGreenParty Yes you have all the qualities - Liar, Narcissist, Corrupt and incredibly stupid. Go for it!

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@JohnCleese The time will come when these beaurocrats will have to answer for all of these actions. The Government does not realise how angry the British public is. Chaos will come sooner than they think.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@supertanskiii You haven't grasped the basic concept of patriotism have you? You don't support an authoritarian PM especially if it's yours.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@narindertweets @cillianblack @MrAngryPat Nope quite the opposite she's waking up to the lies the far left have been spouting on the MSM, a lot of people are wise to the lies and gaslighting the Left have told for years. Sure the right lies as well but not to the blatant extent that the left does.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@terrychristian @andy1972c That comment alone is proof you know nothing of China, They are constructing 300 coal plants increasing their already huge capacity by 23% and are responsible for 95% of all new coal power plants. You are supporting a policy that is crippling Britain and increasing fuel poverty.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@narindertweets Time to contact every show Kaur appears on and complain to Jeremy Vine here: [email protected] and loose women here: https://t.co/Lndvg5FsvB

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@narindertweets It's time for #Jeremeyvineon5 and #loosewomen to cancel Narinder Kaur. She has proven herself to be a race grifter and liar on multiple occasions while pretending to stand up for women's rights and especially dismissing children's rights to defend themselves. Cancel now.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@Muqadaam @narindertweets To any TV shows like #JeremeyVine , or #Loosewomen you should think really hard before having her on. She has been proven to be a liar and race grifter time and time again. She does not stand up for women or even little girls she is only interested in her own fame career.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@terrychristian @EuanMacpherson Terry obtained a couple of O levels and is obviously a genius. Jesus the hubris is really astonishing.

[Andrew Hopkins @Hopkai]

@EYakoby The sentient sweat stain Cenk Uygur and the retarded Medi Hassan are busy writing the script for the next pallywood production. Vile examples of inbred cousin and goat DNA mixed together.
