It's not that complicated. They wanted the winning shot to be a black player so twitter and the guardian journos could have a field day, so to speak. Unfortunately, it turns out that taking a penalty isn't that simple, and meritocracy and experience actually matters alot here, and so they got egged on their faces.
Notice how these things work btw? Oh these Black players are as British as any other actual British (also you can race swap historical people in films ) but they don't have to take on British guilt for being "colonizers" . Oh no that's when they are NOT British and are actually the victims of British.
Overseas colonialism hadn't started yet during Henry II, and Henry I oversaw the abolition of slavery in England. Henry II was also responsible for the English breaking from the Catholic church, which is normally the kind of thing that gets progressives wet.
I don't imagine they're thinking about this any further than a desire to decolonise England ... which, given that it's not been colonised since about 1066, seems to merely be a code phrase for removing those horrible English from the place.
Henry II (Henry VIII is the one who broke from the Catholic church). The funny thing is Henry II didn't do any colonizing unless you count Wales and Ireland.
It's even better than that.
Guess what the binomial classification for lions is at the Genus level?
Panthera.
So they want black panthers on the crest.
Lol no one wants to honor a bunch of losers.
Marxists exist

Henry II? You mean when England was a worthless backwater in Europe?

Let me guess, they think that lions weren't native to England.

Wrong Henry.
Which Henry are they angry about? I'll readily admit that bong history easily confuses me, so many Henrys and Eds.

Henry II: 5 March 1133 – 6 July 1189
Colonialism
Pick one.
Are you saying there were lions native to England at one point? I feel like I've heard that before but it might have been some fever dream.
Yes, the European Lion was rather common all across the continent until the Roman era. Those were European lions in the gladiator games.
Yes, it looked just like the African race of Lion, just like the Asiatic Lion does.
