    Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch has suggested the British Empire brought “good things” to communities as she urged telling “both sides” of history.

    Having gone to school in Lagos, Nigeria, she said she was taught about Britain’s past with a nuanced description that has influenced her view on the former empire.

    “There were terrible things that happened during the British Empire, there were other good things that happened, and we need to tell both sides of the story,” she told Times Radio.

    “I think my upbringing and schooling in another country has really influenced the way that I look at these things.

    “There wasn’t any sort of attempt to describe the British Empire as this awful, terrible thing that oppressed and victimised us.”

    Whilst admitting colonialism is not right, Badenoch argued that “every country, one way or another, did so”, and pointing fingers was not going to change the past.

    She added she refrained from “making herself the victim” as it wasn’t at all helpful, and teaching young people to see themselves as such was counterproductive.

    The minister last year came under fire after leaked messages revealed she claimed not to “care about colonialism” because it “just made a different bunch of winners and losers”.

    In reality she lost 6 years for ignoring warnings about going there and a small matter of £400ml

    Must be tough for you. Imagine having to skip over some twitter posts before you get to the twitter posts you are interested in. Are you in that much of a hurry to get to the racist posts that you seem to enjoy?
