Wed Jun 10, 2020 10:54 am

yesterday lewis hamilton urged countries around the world to remove statues and racist symbols connected with the slave trade

lewis hamilton is estimated to be worth between 200 and 400 million pounds

he made a big chunk of that money both driving and having sponsorship deals with mercedes

during the second world war mercedes daimler-benz made both cars and lorries for the nazi war effort...in 1944 due to a german labour shortage mercedes used over 46,000 slave workers ...mostly eastern european and russian slaves

hamilton also wears the logo of siemens on his racing outfit....siemens are a german company that makes and designs engine parts for racing cars.....during the war siemens designed and built gas chambers at auschwitz and other concentration camps using over 80,000 slave labourers

hamilton has made a fortune from companies with a very dodgy past

The past is conveniently forgotten when it suits or thats different they'll say. :roll:

History (ironically) is littered with the comments of people of all nationalities, races and creeds that had one-eyed views and an inability to recognise their own short-comings

Lewis Hamilton (who I admire as an F1 driver) is a spokesman for nobody but himself and your comment about his links to companies with a certain history is a valid one. Of course, if he wants to see 'fair play' in the world, he could start by moving back to the place of his birth (the UK) and paying some well overdue taxes

No right-minded person modernly condones the African slave trade or any other abuse of human beings of all races, colours, religions or creed. However, history has happened, we cannot change it (although some are trying) but we can learn from it, absorb its teachings and ensure the future is a brighter one for all not just some

Not to mention being the face of Hugo Boss who designed and supplied the Nazi uniforms (they were stylish for bigots to be fair to them). He said all racist symbology must be eradicated while wearing one on his head.

The radical left is just an ever consuming machine of hypocrisy and faux offence. When there is nothing to moan about they either create the issues themselves or turn on their own.

I see JK Rowling is the latest target. A raging leftie herself but she dared to say men don’t get periods and is now public enemy number 1 (or maybe 2) and being labelled a transphobe.

They are dangerous.

I've got a lot of sympathy for black people or any people who suffer any form of racism but Lewis Hamilton is a f*cking hypocrite. He couldn't care less about the terrible situation of human rights abuse the people of Bahrain are witnessing. He dosnt care about them he only seems to care about the money to be earned there
