My ancestors worked as indentured labourers under the British Empire in Mauritius in the 1800s.
Yes it was brutal and harsh.
And it gave my ancestors the chance to earn a wage, acquire property, receive an education and benefit from healthcare- all possible thanks to the British Empire.
We cannot keep teaching our young people a one-sided view of history.
I trace the history in my book, ‘Patriot: Empire, betrayal and hope’.
I'm going to say this once. And if it still hurts you, that's a YOU problem.
Rochelle is 57 years old. She's from a generation that didn't have to step on stones because of the woke brigade. I'm 36 years old and even I relate to Rochelle more than this stupidity that exists now.
She is not racist. She is not transphobic. She is not ableist. What she does have little ability at doing is wording things to benefit your woke egos.
Millie was an example of the hard truth. She wasn't being malicious. She was coming at it from a mum's point of view. You want to lose weight? Well, I've seen what you eat. She's basically saying you won't lose weight if you keep eating the junk I see you eating. NOTHING about that is body shaming Millie. It's brutal honesty.
When Rochelle mentioned bathrooms, that's her opinion. She has never said anything remotely transphobic. Again, Rochelle has probably never met a trans person to understand their perspective. And I'm sure if she wanted to sit down with one, she'd much rather sit with someone who doesn't have the mindset of overwriting women's rights with their own.
And then there's her resurfaced joke about Muslims. Whilst plenty of people today won't find it funny, comedians have been making jokes about all sorts of topics for decades. None of you would have survived the 90s and 00s. Personally, I find dark humour funny. Offensive? Yes. But that doesn't automatically make it racist. You need to give your heads a wobble.
Back in the day, we just said how we felt and what we felt. Now we have to take your feelings into consideration. You'd rather people lie to your face than give you the brutal, honest truth.
