I'm all for making the world a wiser place and to learn from the lessons of history, I just wonder who will adjudicate on which version of history is the true version. And how eg the Spanish Conquest of South America can be put in context of the similar cruelties and conquests of the eg the Inca and Aztec Empires in their day
The history of the UK is littered with the 'locals' being invaded, conquered and subjugated from aboard from the Celts, the Romans, the Angles, the Saxons, the Vikings, the Normans even the Dutch to mention just a few. Invaders who in turn robbed us of our identity, our culture and our language and often made slaves of us traded throughout Europe.
Yet it appears we Brits are not apparently owed any redress/apologies for the grievances and wrongs done to us, seems a double standard at play here.
