Mick Napier | Children sent to 'whiten up' Australia

The UK Government forcibly sent 150,000 kids abroad between 1920 and 1967 to 'whiten' Australia and Canada.Gordon Brown made a formal apology to the British children affected, many of whom faced abuse and a regime of unpaid labour.Brown only made the formal apology after the Australian government issued their own. He called the programme 'misguided'. It did not stop until 1967.The vulnerable working class children were cut off from their families or even falsely informed that they were orphans.No UK government officials were ever charged, let alone convicted, for this crime against humanity.Resistance TV is a weekly show hosted by Chris Williamson the former Labour MP, Derby Council Leader and the founder of Resist Movement for a People's Party.
