End of.

They arent British

They arrived post 48'

Yes they are

No

Blacks existed in the UK before 48'

If they were born here and raised here then they are British

In how few numbers?

Race has nothing to do with it

One of the guys who led the British charge to abolish slavery was Black.

Cope

"In 1833, the UK parliament passed a law to finally outlaw slavery in the British Empire. The catch? In order to persuade slave owners, the government had to pay £20m in compensation for the loss of their "property".

That bailout to slave owners amounted to 40% of the country's national budget at the time, or £2.4bn in today's money. The debt wasn't fully paid off until 2015."

Leohte we do cope with you but lord you make it hard.

@Kunarian Wow I love goat curry thanks to that little tidbit you provided

Yes, the population of blacks in Britain prior to 48' was no more numerous than 5000

Can we add Leohte to that strawpoll that was pinned?

But they are endemic to all of our history

I imagine that was pulled out of your arse.

Im pretty sure 40% of our budget is more than 2.4bn

You can imagine what you want, Marxist.

@wacka The big brains don't realise that sometimes talking softly works better than using the big stick.

Ah yes.

If I'm not racist or hating Jews I'm a Marxist.

The government budget before the first world war was tiny @wacka

it inflated even more after ww2

Marxism has a very low barrier to entry nowadays.

I thought you had to actually believe in Marxism silly me.

right but they say.. its the equivalent today as 2.4bn

That makes Marxism sound better actually

Maybe I am a Marxist then Lizard?

if it was 40% of our budget these days it would be about half a trillion

not by monetary inflation did it get bigger

the actual spending

If Marxism is just not being racist or Anti-Semitic then a good potion of the world population are Marxists

was multiplied many times during and after the first world war

no I understand.. but if it was 40% of our budget... we'd be fckd

today I mean

or not fckd.. but I can see why it would take hundreds of years to pay off

It was needed though

They couldn't just ban it without providing compensation

welll... was it...
