THE arch-racist imperialist Cecil Rhodes once said: “To be born English is to win first prize in the lottery of life.”
Closer to home, in 1937, another arch-racist, Winston Churchill, displayed his own master race inclinations when he said: “I do not believe that the dog in the manger has the right to the manger, simply because he has lain there for so long. I do not believe that the Red Indian has been wronged in America, or the black man has been wronged in Australia, simply because they have been displaced by a higher, stronger race.”
To them everything other than white is inferior and to be treated that way. Sadly these were not isolated views and were and are prevalent throughout England.
