The finest Italian cuisine you can find in England.I really like the Takeaway Guy's Geoff Assel wig.
The British Raj actually WAS the best thing that could happen to India.India/UK Free Trade talks are not going well.
Don't agree Mandrill, India generated 20% of the world's economy when The East India Company conquered Bengal. By the time the British left in 1947, that figure was down to 6%.The British Raj actually WAS the best thing that could happen to India.
It turned a religiously bigoted, extremely violent, corrupt, caste-ridden, backward country where .001% of the population owned 99.9999% of the wealth into a place that was decently and properly run for 100 years. And now the Indians are resentful cunts about that fact.
Agree with most of that.Don't agree Mandrill, India generated 20% of the world's economy when The East India Company conquered Bengal. By the time the British left in 1947, that figure was down to 6%.
Rule Britannia is still strong with the nightmare Tories. The UK is becoming a Failed State, better to look for scapegoats than dealing with real problems. Home Secretary Suella Braverman, herself of Indian descent, has been using Joseph Goebbels rhetoric to dehumanize migrants, they are a cancer on all that is good and British. The nightmare Tories are actually going ahead him plans to deport them to Rwanda.
I'm working with a bunch of brits who were totally freaking out at the places they were staying at. They couldn't find out how to turn the heat off when you leave and were super worried.Agree with most of that.
But the EIC conquered Bengal in 1750 in the pre industrial era and by 1950, most of the wealth and income was being generated by industrialized countries in the West. The British did not industrialize India, but they didn't have a duty to do so either.
That's common to all Europe right now in the post Ukraine War era.I'm working with a bunch of brits who were totally freaking out at the places they were staying at. They couldn't find out how to turn the heat off when you leave and were super worried.
That's the norm there now, turn off the heat when you leave, never leave it on for more then 4 hours at a time.
True, but they were saying that was the norm before the war started as well.That's common to all Europe right now in the post Ukraine War era.
