    I was amazed just how true this is. There was a colossal head and arm of an Egyptian statue in the British museum, and a plaque saying the rest of the statue (body and legs) were still where they found it. Presumably because they were to heavy to take back.

                One man shouldn’t rule a country because of who his mum was. Democracy is good.

    According to this, British people are ants as I am pretty sure that ants would enjoy the sweet beans on toast.

      Although they’d probably prefer the sickly sugar water that Heinz come in, rather than the far superior Branston beans.

    It’s really not on at all that some countries still have their own cultural icons. They all need to be in the British museum where they can be conveniently appreciated.

            Not really true. The early British colonies had a lot of peaceful trade and alliances with native tribes until the first Indian war. And even after the first Indian war, the British did nothing that could be considered even remotely close to the genocide of the Americans westward expansion.

              “…The British did nothing that could be considered even remotely close to the genocide…”

              Except for the Boer concentration camps, the Irish famine, the Bengal famine, the partition of India…
