Tired of “every political problem is US fault,” so I’m kicking the can.
That’s the impression the article title gives you - and it gave me, also - but when you read it I think you’ll realise it’s far more than mere hyperbole.
Edit: Also, all the great bits about Great Britain are not English. It’s primarily the English (as well as a few Scottish aristocrats) who perpetrated all the colonial bullshit.
Bring back the Normans, I say. The only people who successfully conquered Britain in 1,000 years. Technically, the Channel Islands is the last Norman refuge. I’d quite happily have the Bailiwick of Guernsey rule over the UK - not Jersey though, they’re a bunch of toffs and should stay on their own Island, where the rest of the Tories can be deported to.
But I genuinely think you should read the article, all the way, if you haven’t yet.
