Actually during the 50s & 60s many boarding houses, Inns and Pubs throughout England, but especially in London had signs declaring;- NO BLACKS, NO IRISH AND NO DOGS. Now there is a non-white Prime Minister and someone of color as Lord mayor of London. If the Irish and Blacks withdrew to their countries of origin or emigrated elsewhere the U.K.,'s National Health Service, along with many other public services would collapse. The Republic of Ireland is officially ranked the 4th most prosperous Nation in the E.U., and despite being 19th, (out of 27 member states, in the E.U.,'s population league) Ireland has one of the highest G.D.P., growth rates, (10.27% in the first half of 2022) and its economy continues to flourish and grow apace. Ireland always did punch well above its weight. One revealing statistic is that we can boast 23 U.S., presidents having Irish heritage, including John F. Kennedy. However, we have to apologize for Joe (THE IMBECILE) Biden. Side: Aye

Misplaced English arrogance has resulted in them being at the bottom end of the league of the G7 nations as well as being unable to produce anyone with sufficient executive abilities to head an effective government. THREE PRIME MINISTERS IN SEVEN WEEKS, FOUR IN AS MANY YEARS. MAN, MAN OH MAN. Poor old broken down Britain has to rely on immigrants , including the Irish and Blacks, to form and organize the framework of their local governments and to staff their vital public services such the N.H.S. America had to save your bacon twice in the last century and you lot had to rely on the U.S.,'s benevolent Marshall Plan loan to make up for your inability to rebuild your economy as an independent nation and stand on your own two feet. Scotland and now the majority of the population of Northern Ireland want to be released from the strangle hold of Britain's successive eyewateringly disastrous maladministrations. England is a spent force and now that it has ceased to be a full member of the E.U., its economic deterioration and collapse of its global influence will accelerate. AS BRITAIN SINKS, NOT SO SLOWLY, INTO THE QUAGMIRE OF ITS INCOMPETENCE AND AMATEURISH BUNGLING THE BAND IS PLAYING LAND OF HOPE AND GLORY, ROARS OF LAUGHTER FROM THE BACK STALLS. DO TRY TO KEEP UP OLD BEAN. Side: Aye

To try to understand why such offensive attitudes were so common we must recognise that the Irish and Blacks were in the forefront of the rebuilding of the U.K., after the shocking devastation caused by Germany's WW2. During the early stages of this period the Irish tradesmen and laborers invariably lodged in Britain and travelled home one or two weekends each month. During their leisure time in England drunkenness, barroom and street brawling was quite a common feature of their recreational activities. I feel that resentment towards Blacks was partially due to xenophobia and downright racism. Side: Dirty Tinkers

The English plundered, MISAPPROPRIATED the national treasures of countless nations as well as murdering and enslaving innumerable 1000s of indigenous people of the lands which they overran. When it comes to thieving, murder, enslavement and exploitation the English are unequalled in the entire world. You lot of has-beens have been booted out of all of the nations of your now defunct EMPIRE of which you were so unashamedly proud. Look at the mess which is now a rapidly deflating and despised Britain compared with the thriving economy and global popularity of the Republic of Ireland. The English were great at overcoming developing nations whose defence forces consisted of poorly trained warriors/soldiers armed with spears and bows and arrows. However, once the ALMIGHTY BRITS were confronted with a modern army such as the Germans you were annihilated twice in the 20th century and in WW2 were kicked out of France and chased across the English Channel to Limey Land where you waited for Uncle Sam to come to your aid once again. Saving Britain has been an expensive chore for the United States ever since. WHEN IT COMES TO THIEVING, MURDERING, ENSLAVING AND HUMAN EXPLOITATION, THE ENGLISH ARE IN THE UNENEVIABLE POSITION OF BEING AT THE TOP OF THE INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE OF DISPICABLE ROGUES. HEY, THE CHINESE KICKED YOU OUT OF HONG KONG, AND THAT EVENT BEGS THE QUESTION; WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU LOT DOING THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE? Side: Dirty Tinkers
Check out THE OPIUM WARS which describes how The English peddled opium to the Chinese population in the full knowledge that their criminal activities would create mass addiction and cause severe damage to the Chinese economy. The ruthless British used the profits they made from selling drugs to the Chinese people to buy silks, spices and other Oriental luxury goods which were in great demand in Europe. This was indicative of the glorious British Empire. MAN, MAN OH MAN. Side: Dirty Tinkers
