In sixth grade I used the word "stolid" in a paper and my teacher marked it as a spelling error, then accused me of cheating when I tried to argue, so I like to put it into each of my books as a cute little fuck you to that lady.

This is the first History Reclaimed attack on @davidolusoga.bsky.social’s BBC Empire series, in The Spectator. The thread on its recycled Telegraph version shows how criticisms of the representation of Mike Mountain Horse and the invasion of Ijebu are based on untruths. But else do they argue?

The prospect of a Reform-Tory pact makes it even more important Labour doesn't alienate the progressives it needs to vote tactically to keep the most right-wing, nakedly nativist, and climate denying political movement in modern British history out of government.
