I think the main point you miss is that most of that list was done covertly.  Or at least was done without the general knowledge of the public, even if there was no attempt to actually HIDE it.  When we the American public have found such instances of our Govt. acting in this manner, we have insisted they cease, and in some cases held criminal hearings against the officials that ordered them to go on.  Brits consider themselves Imperialists with a sense of pride, as if meddling in another country's policies and subjugating others is part and parcel of their national identity.  Spin it how you like.

It? Know what better?  Please pardon my ignorance, but I only speak English.

Actually, we are citizens (so you don't know that much).  Maybe you'd better get back to the T.V. and occupy your mind in a more constructive fashion.

Fox News maybe?

Subjects, citizens? who bloddy cares. Its a word that in practise means little. If you guys realy think that the Royal family have that much influence over us you are not reading very up to date history books. Whatever we are we are Brits and damn proud of it old chap! :D  Now anything wrong in that?

Well, I dont remember the previous posting, my life has been quite busy and this is a tiny part of it.  I guess I am the first one to make a duplicate post.

But, I do remember you are French and as such deserve my sympathy.

Not a citizen?  That's odd because i'm a british citizen and also an EU citizen.

I bet your total time ruling Ireland while denying most of the Irish the ability to vote will greatly exceed the total time we spend in Iraq trying to give all of them the ability to vote. By a huge factor.

Not that I'd expect you folks to admit the difference.

It is laughable when you guys lecture on imperialism and colonialism.  Sky's bit on the English ending slavery is a good example. Slave trading like rabbits mate until there was no money in it for you and then claiming you "ended" it as if you saw the evil of it. What the evil of not making money at it?

:rofl
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

so AKH... we have all these colonies in south and central america and east asia and the middle east and former soviet countries?

Can you name our colonies?   Which ones bring in money and are under our rule?   Allowing more freedom for a countries peoples is not the same as the british colonizing and enslaving it.
