    You missed out "in the same time period".

    From TFA you link to:
    Davis, by contrast, has calculated that between 1 million and 1.25 million European Christians were captured and forced to work in North Africa from the 16th to 18th centuries… Over the course of four centuries, the Atlantic slave trade was much larger – about 10 to 12 million black Africans were brought to the Americas. But from 1500 to 1650, when trans-Atlantic slaving was still in its infancy, more white Christian slaves were probably taken to Barbary than black African slaves to the Americas, according to Davis.

      I think you have to be a legal registered plumber in Germany to fit a shower block.....
      It's ok - your part on this level is Polish slave labour.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        The hard bit is finishing the showers before the Romanians have stolen the building supplies and tried to sell them back to you.

          That's Liverpool fans and a Sheffield stadium, surely?

            I'm onto Level 5 which is a Tory Cluedo where you have to decide if it was IDS and his Work Assessment Program or Hunt and his NHS cutbacks caused the death
            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.

                level 6 is cramming contractor online petitions into the toilet so the government can get HMRC to flush them away.

                  Wow. Level 7 is our very own Brillopad level. You have to cram as many ex-wives & children in to the family court while stopping Batman from handcuffing himself to the roof. Bloody difficult so far.

                  You know what they say about assumptions!

                    I am confused about level 8 though. Cramming sledges into imaginary first class lounge. Do I need to pour imaginary champers to get more in?

                    I believe level 9 is having to be banned though. Image cramming tenants into BTL in Swindon. Too close to reality.

                      Level 8 is cramming bankers onto the Jubilee Line. Bonus for getting as many as you can on the tracks just as the train arrives. Use of cattle prod encouraged.
