| | History of British society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the 50s and 60s immigration of people to the UK, mainly from former British colonies in the Caribbean, India and Pakistan, began to escalate, leading to racism. | | | The people might have supported the limiting of the power of the king, but what they did not like were the strictures placed on society by the Puritans. | | | Certainly, numerous peoples took advantage of the absence of Roman power, but how they affected British society is far from clear. |

| | article_connelly_battleships_augdec04.htm |
| | [3] This article seeks to expand Harrington’s thesis by looking at British battleships in general, and place them within the wider framework of British society between 1920 and 1960, the year in which the last British battleship, Vanguard, was scrapped. | | | The Vanguard was never the darling of the British people in the way that the mighty Hood had been. | | | A dramatic finale shows the battleship ploughing through heavy seas as the commentary states: ‘As she sails forth at the head of the fleet, there may come at any moment that encounter with the enemy which will bring forth the finest and best of everyman onboard. |
