The Sun's column ‘Tales of olde blighty'. Oh dear Brian, you realy should loose the 600-year-old chip on your shoulder. The Vikings and the Normans also ‘wreaked havoc' on the Irish and Scots along time before the English. Do we look forward to a racist rant about Scandinavians or Northwest France?
Obviously you have gained your historical facts by watching Mel Gibson in ‘Braveheart'. Maybe you should watch the scene from Monty Pythons ‘Life of Brian' called ‘What have the Romans ever done for us?'. It might explain all about the ‘evil British Empire'.
‘Wreaking havoc on the Argentinians'.The British first landed on the unhihabited Falklands in 1690, Argentina gained independence from Spain in 1816.Explain to us how they can lay claim to sovereignty over the islands 128 years before they existed as a country. If, like Argentina, you say it was part of the independence treaty with Spain ,and it was theirs before the bloody poms turned up, then you being a Republican would agree that Argentina should give all the land back to the native South Americans that Imperialist Spain took from them.Or maybe because the Spanish were on the Irish and Scots side against the English, thats a different matter.

Editor's Note: What do you mean? Is ‘Life of Brian' not a documentary? Are you trying to say it is fiction such as ‘An Inconvenient Truth'?
