    Fact is millions died in famines in British colonies. That much is not in dispute by any reputable historian.
    Perhaps you should take a leaf out of the modern Germans' book and try to understand your history rather than trying to sweep the more disreputable parts under the carpet?
    Hard Brexit now!

        Indeed

        Churchill’s hatred for Indians led to four million starving to death during the Bengal ‘famine’ of 1943. “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion” he would say.

          Fact is millions died in famines in all colonies and before they were colonies. They still die in famines mainly due to nutters and incompetence. The Germans however decided to actively murder millions. That is a completely different choice and one that should shame us all.

          I am not sweeping them under the carpet just challenging the assurance that the deaths were intentional or due to malice.

          If you have a bleeding heart then give away your fortune so those less fortunate can live in luxury - yeah I thought not.

            You might want to research that a bit more before talking bollocks as usual.

                UKIP got 12.5% in 2015, similar to the Afd.

                Moreover out thicko friend doesn't know that the AfD's support is concentrated in the old East Germany, which with its different history, whereby the Russians conflated Hitler and the West, has a different understanding of its past.
                Yeah lets compare UKIP with those nice people from AFD & FN
                AFD
                German election: How right-wing is nationalist AfD? - BBC News
                AfD adopted some of Pegida's anti-establishment rhetoric, such as the slogan "Lügenpresse" ("lying press"), which was used by the Nazis.

                Germany must reintroduce permanent border controls and the EU's external borders must be "completely shut", AfD says. That position contradicts Schengen - the EU's free movement zone, covering most of Europe, where border checks are generally minimal.


                AfD argues that Germany must set up a new border police force. Frauke Petry once said German police should "if necessary" shoot at migrants seeking to enter the country illegally. And she was seen as an AfD moderate.
                France elections: What makes Marine Le Pen far right? - BBC News

                Treatment of immigrants in France is probably the standout, far-right policy of Marine Le Pen's FN. And it is central to the party's platform.

                Jobs, welfare, housing, schools, or any area of public provision should go to French nationals before they get to "foreigners".


                The centre of gravity of French politics may have shifted to the right. But no other party has adopted favouritism across the social services - and it could breach the law.

                and UKIP

                UKIP manifesto summary: Key points at-a-glance - BBC News


                Reducing net migration to zero within five yearsA ban on the wearing of face coverings in public places
                Six Brexit tests
                An extra £11bn every year for the NHS and social care by 2022
                A rise in the threshold for paying income tax to £13,500
                A cut in taxes for middle earners
                Cut VAT on household bills
                Axe tuition fees for science, technology, engineering, maths and medicine
                Provide up to 100,000 new homes for younger people every year
                Maintain the triple lock on pensions which sees them rise by the higher of prices, average earnings or 2.5%
                Spend "a genuine" 2% of GDP on defence, plus £1bn every year
                20,000 more police, 7,000 more prison officers, and 4,000 more border force staff.

                yep we can see the similarities....

                Obviously the AFD is not a real party because its support is in the less cosmopolitan areas of Germany. Do remind me which areas voted to leave?

                    you know I like winding Darmy & the other grammar idiots up?

                    Obviously if the best thing you can do is complain about such things you know you have lost the argument?

                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
