He looked so miserable when the BBC invited him to do the coronation coverage. Bro is just not keen on this country.

On Ancestry DNA I am 78% English (+Cornish), 12% Welsh, 5% Irish, 1% Scottish. A mix of the nations.

really interesting, something I have been trying to find out re the nationalities act is that you have to have English birth back 3 generations on

I was born & raised in England. At 13 went to boarding school in Ireland, the history was an eye opener, blew apart everything I was taught previously

As an Irish person please don't collectively include Ireland as part of a some sort of 4 nations. Ireland is independent and has nothing to do with UK

His language is so passive so normal. it's opposite to bloody turmoil and savagery visited on the other three nations

Will it mention the starvation of millions of Irish during the great famine? That was surely a force that tore people apart from the ‘union’

David Olusoga is a fantastic historian - uncovering and explaining many events that a lot of white racists don't like to hear. Thank you, David.

Here's one of Britain's most famous race-baiters. He owes us everything and yet he hates 87% of us. 😂

As an Irish person I’m happy to not be included in this dialogue thx. Britain is never gonna educate their people about us so we’re ok with the EU x
