Ooh, is this for advertising a new Irish version of the popular tv show?

And as I pointed out, a lot who went willingly were genuinely seeking a better life.

They weren’t genocidal as your sentence implies.

Anyway, back to the original point: everyone in America is an immigrant or a descendant of one, whether that’s from the original settlers 40,000 years ago crossing the Bering Strait or only a few years ago crossing the Rio Grande.

No, they weren’t all colonial genocidal settlers.

A not insignificant number were prisoners transported for life for as little as stealing break to feed a starving family. The crimes for which you could be sentenced to transportation increased massively during that period as judges took backhanders to supply the land grabbers with free labour.

Others were trying to escape horrors of war and famine, and were mis-sold the promise of a better life. Transportation costs were often paid by recruiting agents for land grabbers, telling people they would have a job for a few years to pay the debt off, then be given land. Neither actually happened.

The very, very few (let’s call them the 1%) saw the new world as an opportunity to get richer, and employed genocidal maniacs to reach that end, sure.

They’re all about immigration.

Is this Trumps new HQ?

I’d have jumped back into the ocean.

It’s a great idea until you remember the English populace and their voting history.

I think keep the HoL (but maybe rename it), abolish peerages, have a fixed term, keep the appointment commission but have half of the members of that sortified.

There’s also bishops from the Church of England in there having a say in what happens like it’s still the Middle Ages.

The only other country where senior religious figures have that kind of say is Iran.

And there are countries littered with US air bases. Like the one only a few miles from here that regularly houses bombers.

Those damn bees are scamming us!
