"The slave trade had been banned in England in 1102. In a 1569 court case involving Cartwright, who had bought a slave from Russia, the court ruled that English law could not recognise slavery, as it was never established officially. This ruling was overshadowed by later developments. It was upheld in 1700 by Lord Chief Justice Sir John Holt when he ruled that "As soon as a man sets foot on English ground he is free"."

Yeah

size of that head.... clearly big brain big pp

In his 1776 A Dissertation on the *Duty of Mercy and Sin of Cruelty to Brute Animals*, the clergyman Humphry Primatt wrote, "the white man (notwithstanding the barbarity of custom and prejudice), can have no right, by virtue of his colour, to enslave and tyrannize over a black man."

If we want to maintain good standards, then we should be using the UK as a reference point, not the EU

yknow the more the far left attacks priti, the more I think she is going to become the next PM... first non-white woman PM

I'm sure the progressives would be thrilled

she cant be worse than may or maggie

but havent you heard? according to the leftwaffe she is a monster!

my kind of girl tbh

for the imperium of course

She'd make a good pm

Maggie was fine tbf

But I can see Pritti Patel becoming PM after Boris’ terms

the optics are good but what has she done of note

Right now I am just glad we have Prime Minister Johnson and not Prime Minister Corbyn

Corbyn: Let’s run on a campaign of Anti-Britishness

Boris: Let’s actually care about the country’s choice

I was born in London (Moved to Kent when I was 5 back in ‘05) so I can call myself a true Londoner (Not the fake Londoners who weren’t even fucking born there and have been there for 2 months)

(Plus I was also born in 1999 Kek)

My opinions are very much rooted in patriotism, as I have read a lot of history and believe that much of what our country has done through centuries shaped the modern democratic world

Welcome to the town Zac

Maybe that’s because I’m not a middle class cunt who decides “eMpIrE bAd”

Good ol’ working class

Nothing wrong with being middle class

nothing wrong with the upper classes

Well there is when you use your wealth to flout positions and authority in opposition to the majority

E.g. Brexit remainiacs

Yes, but that's just champaign socialists and people with vested interests, or people who are ideologically posessed

Easy to use the marker middle class, but I don't think that's the best description for them

True, but it seems it’s all the middle class nowadays

They hold the speaking power in the news

When have they ever brought working class leavers that weren’t straw men like in that Channel 4 pub clip during Brexit day?

well, I am from the working class, my farther was an incredibly workcentric guy, but I am middle class now, living in an area that is wealthy, and full of middle class people. The thing you're speaking of is a type of middle class person, and it is very true. However, I think a better way to describe them is boojie

boojie, sjw, middle class cunts

and I wouldn't even call PEP a boojie middle class cunt, I think he holds a genuine conviction about us being wrong

which is a different thing

@notaglobe Its called Narcistic Personality Disorder.
