Yes we were practising slavery almost within living memory. At the time you and I were born it was within living memory.
And we're still doing comparably horribly things to one another. For example how does one react to the news I heard on the radio just now that an independent survey team has calculated that 100,000 iraqi civilians have been killed since the start of the war? Downing St takes issue with the figures. Well, of course it would. Murderers! How does Blair sleep at nights?
