The #BritishMuseum theft(s) row is just the latest incidence of the problem that British claims to be on the moral high ground somehow seldom seems to survive contact with reality.... its the decadence & #corruption of post-imperial #Britain laid bare in one story.

Or perhaps its just history circling back to bite us in the bum?

In any case it hardly a glowing example of civility!
