The UK Slavery Reparations in a nutshell:
You go buy stolen property off a guy. You then pay to return that property, and then the guy who stole it years later expects to be paid again.
End result, you pay three times for something you don't keep.
Smells like a scam.

There were five slave trades. You were taught about only one. ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ๐ฌ๐ง
One. The Atlantic. Twelve million Africans shipped to the Americas. Britain banned it in 1807, then hunted it for sixty years.
Two. The Barbary trade. A million Europeans taken to North Africa. Britain bombarded Algiers in 1816.
Three. The Saharan trade. A thousand years of caravans north across the desert. Britain had its northern end banned. Tripoli, 1857.
Four. The East African trade. Twenty thousand people a year through one customs house. Britain forced the market shut. 5 June 1873.
Five. The Ottoman trade. Raiders sold Eastern Europeans south for three hundred years. Britain made the Sultan ban it in 1854.
It cost sixty years and two thousand sailors. Nobody else fought all five. ๐๐ฌ๐ง
It isn't over. Mauritania only made it a crime in 2007. Fifty million people are in slavery today.
Someone has to remember who started the fight. โ๐ฌ๐ง๐ช
It's always amusing to see a 'journalist' defending free press, but then limiting replies.
It's like someone defending the use of an electronic megaphone, which they password lock so nobody else can use it.

Beirut was once known as the "Paris" of the Middle East.
Paris is now known as the "Beirut" of Europe.
Demographic changed ruined both. Resist it while you still can.
So, the big story from the Pro-Palestinian mob over night is the UK banning of Sally Rooney's books. Terrible!
Except like much of the Palestinian propaganda, it's deceit.
Rooney and her publisher have decided to withdraw her own books from the UK market.

Hola, soy palestino. ๐ต๐ธ
Y como la honestidad es poco comรบn en mi polรญtica, permรญtanme confesar algunas cosas.
1947. La ONU me ofreciรณ un estado. Junto a Israel. Fronteras, independencia, reconocimiento. Dije que no. Mis lรญderes prometieron que la guerra "arrojarรญa a los judรญos al mar". En cambio, lo perdรญ todo y lo llamaron catรกstrofe. No porque no me ofrecieran un estado, sino porque lo rechacรฉ.
1948โ2025. Los estados รกrabes podrรญan haberme integrado, dado derechos, pasaportes, dignidad. En cambio, me encerraron en campos de refugiados durante generaciones, para que siguiera siendo un arma contra Israel. Construyeron palacios para ellos y cรกrceles para mรญ. Me usaron como propaganda, no como personas.
1967. Tras otra guerra perdida, podrรญa haber construido un estado en Cisjordania y Gaza. En cambio, insistรญ en "ni paz, ni reconocimiento, ni negociaciones". Tres noes. Cincuenta aรฑos despuรฉs, sigo sin Estado. Resulta que el rechazo no paga el alquiler.
Oslo, dรฉcada de 1990. Israel dijo: ยซIntentรฉmosloยป. Me dio autonomรญa. Armas para la policรญa. Miles de millones en ayuda. ยฟQuรฉ hicieron mis lรญderes? Robaron el dinero, armaron milicias y lanzaron una intifada. Atentados suicidas en lugar de escuelas. Cohetes en lugar de fรกbricas.
Gaza, 2005. Israel se fue por completo. Sin colonos, sin soldados. Tuve la oportunidad de convertir Gaza en un Singapur mediterrรกneo. Votรฉ por Hamรกs. La convirtieron en Mogadiscio junto al mar. ยฟMiles de millones en ayuda? Tรบneles, cohetes y palacios para sus lรญderes, mientras mi gente come comida enlatada en la oscuridad.
ยฟDemocracia? No he tenido elecciones en casi 20 aรฑos. Hamรกs mata a los disidentes en Gaza. Fatah los encarcela en Cisjordania. Mis lรญderes cancelan elecciones porque estรกn demasiado ocupados luchando por el poder.
Religiรณn. En lugar de construir un futuro, pongo a clรฉrigos en televisiรณn enseรฑando a los niรฑos a odiar a los judรญos. Glorifico a los "mรกrtires" que hacen estallar autobuses. Crรญo a mis hijos con canciones de sangre y fuego en lugar de libros y ciencia. Cambio la esperanza por la guerra santa.
Mundo รกrabe. Los regรญmenes รกrabes me llaman "hermano". Pero pregรบntenles cuรกntos palestinos pueden vivir libremente en Lรญbano, Siria, Egipto o Kuwait. Me excluyen, pero celebran mi muerte, porque mi muerte es su excusa.
Absurdo. Sigo diciendo que quiero "construir un estado". E irรณnicamente, justo al lado estรก Israel: el vecino que construyรณ una democracia prรณspera, una potencia tecnolรณgica, granjas en el desierto, ciudades de polvo. Sin petrรณleo, sin riqueza infinita, solo coraje. Podrรญa haber aprendido, copiado, colaborado. En cambio, elegรญ la envidia y la rabia.
Obsesiรณn antijudรญa. Podrรญa haber aceptado a los judรญos como vecinos. Podrรญa haber dicho: "Dos naciones, dos estados". En cambio, repito: "Del rรญo al mar". En lugar de exhibir el honor, la hospitalidad y la rica cultura รกrabe, mostrรฉ solo la cultura de la espada: la ira, el extremismo y la sangre. En lugar de gritar salaam (paz) a los israelรญes, gritรฉ muerte a los judรญos. Y luego finjo sorprenderme cuando los israelรญes no confรญan en mรญ, cuando estรกn enojados, decepcionados y convencidos de que no quiero coexistencia en absoluto.
Responsabilidad. Culpo a Israel de todo. Siempre. ยฟMis lรญderes roban miles de millones? Culpa de Israel. ยฟHamรกs dispara cohetes desde hospitales? Culpa de Israel. ยฟGlorifico la muerte mรกs que la vida? Culpa de Israel. La responsabilidad no es mi fuerte.
Soy palestino.
Podrรญa haber construido una naciรณn, muchas veces. Elegรญ el rechazo, la corrupciรณn y la guerra sin fin. Podrรญa haber vivido en paz con Israel, pero elegรญ vivir a la sombra de su destrucciรณn.
Asรญ que sรญ, soy una vรญctima. Pero con demasiada frecuencia, soy vรญctima de mis propios lรญderes, de mis propias decisiones y de mi propia negativa a abandonar el odio.
Y esa, querido lector, es la tragedia que nadie quiere admitir.
English is not the same as "British".

See how British is also part of Asian? The โOtherโ write-in is the catch-all for a section limited to half a page.
So, an ethnicity thief decided to block me for pointing out he's in no way English.

Sorry, Paola Poot. You were civil in our disagreement, but Rajan shut down the conversation after being called out.

People seem confused by ethnicity suddenly. It's merely this. The foundation of ethnicity is genetic ancestry and shared history, atop which other lays of ethnic makeup are stacked.
Without the foundational layer, the rest collapses, as they're all derived from that foundation.
This is Enoch Powell. When he made his famous "Rivers of Blood" speech, that so outraged the political elite, polling indicated that 74% of the country agree with him, 11% were unsure, and only 15% disagreed.
94% wanted a 'drastic reduction' in immigration.
British man denied bail and kept in custody till at least March next year for slashing a dinghy to protect our border.
5 men detained on suspicion of preparing a terror attack at an RAF site on behalf of a foreign state, granted bail.
Do not know them by the titles they award themselves, and the slurs they hurl at others. Know them by their actions.
When they use intimidation to shut down the democratic process, are they the 'good' guys?

As any Brit will tell you, report a crime and the struggle to get police in attendance is real, but the moment Brits try to stop the illegal invasion of our country, which the Government 'should' be doing, no amount of police is too much to protect the invaders.
By 2050, the majority of children in the UK will be non-white British, meaning the indigenous British will have been reduced to a minority in their own country against their will.
If this were done in reverse, we would recognise national ethnic cleansing when we saw it.

๐ฌ๐ง It looks like Banksy is going to be replaced by a patriotic artist. This one was seen in Clacton-on-sea of a policeman covering up the Union Jack flag.
The whole country backs him.
So, these two things exist in the same reality, with apparently no contradiction or whiff of hypocrisy.
Representation for me, but not for thee ...
