Handel the Racist




 I have recently discovered that the Royal Academy of Music in London is reviewing its collection of pianos and violins with the intention of removing items that might be linked to Britain’s colonial past.


“Pianos made with colonial ivory and artefacts linked to Messiah composer George Frideric Handel, who invested in the slave trade, could potentially be problematic and are being considered to be removed from its onsite museum”


I never guessed that listening to Handel’s Messiah was an exercise is white supremacy, now I feel thoroughly ashamed, I am almost considering handing myself over to Humza Yousaf’s Hate Police to be trialed in the court of Wokeness …what a load of fucking shite!!! 


The last time someone tried to censor who could listen to what was when a wee nyaff on Facebook declared people who voted No to Scottish independence should now sing Flower of Scotland at the Rugby in a self-assuming belief on a hierarchy of patriotic class system where presumably he thought he would be ranking at the top in all his eunuch splendour! 


It’s an obnoxious state of affairs when public institutions (or individuals)  are desperately trying to out-woke each other for plaudits from liberal left extremists (or their peers within their silo if a bubble as dumb Nat mentioned above) 


If it’s not a privileged Prince Harry landing in a private jet with Megan draped out in clothes and jewels worth in excess of £67000 to lecture us about poverty then it’s the board of botanical gardens removing sugar cane plants due to their link in colonialism and the slave trade.
