@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 It's quite typical actually mate. The British weren't conquerors, we did it with collaboration or acquiesce with the locals such as yourself.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 It was Catholic oppression. When did I say it was good? You were suggesting it was because they speak Gaelic or Irish or whatever.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 The curious thing about Ireland is you can move to the south and have full voting rights as Irish people can in the UK. It's not a hard border to cross. If you hate the British why stay even work for them?

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 Well then you are still part of the UK mate. I don't get what you are on about.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 I'm not trying to look good. I'm pointing out the facts.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 The British are long gone from the Republic pal. Feel free to do what you want.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 Because Catholic mass was persecuted as it was in England. If you want to speak Gaelic to me please feel free. I've got a translation button. Like a lot of former colonies you complain but keep what we introduced.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 Absolute bollox mate. The English didn't force the language on anyone. India made it the national language long after we left. You should be grateful you are fluent in the worlds lingua franca. One of our many gifts to the world.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 Irish isn't used as the lingua franca is it you simpleton.

@Bogiesalterego @Sbox02 @NatSufc99 The British didn't give the world art although they did give Parliamentary democracy, English language, common law, jury system, bill of rights, association football and a lot more. British culture is ubiquitous in much the world.

@Sbox02 @NatSufc99 It wasn't really conquering. The colonies were most important in that they were markets for British goods. And of course to keep your rivals such as France out.

@humanity_gone1 @Rory_B_Bellowes @grimnir123 @OWS1892 Usta Panaik figures bollox. As for killing the locals Britain can't have been very good at it. The Indian subcontinent nearly tripled in population size under the British due to public health policies.

@LeeInTheWild @grimnir123 @OWS1892 Britain wasn't built by slavery. At its height in 1770 it did make about a 3% contribution to GDP.

@NaumanAlta17778 @BigWayneConley We can't have been very good at looting. During the Empire days British people paid far more tax than those in the colonies. The Empire cost a fortune to administrate and protect.

@BluWokeDemon @I_amMukhtar Hard lad!

@CalvinMcnuggets @footbalIfights Hard lad!

@secondtierpod In college American football some teams get 80000 plus average attendance. This is like second division football and it's the best supported league in the world. Higher than Premier League and Bundesliga.

@Him20345 @jack231997 @wallace3590 @wtpwba 😅

@Him20345 @jack231997 @wallace3590 @wtpwba We don't want to end up like America do we.

@EsheruKwaku @LaurynBahen @Kerrys2Cents @RupertLowe10 You educate yourself about DEI from English teachers with a degree in psychology? As usual it's third rate academics toting this bollox.
