It is believed the ancient Picts that inhabited Scotland from the late Iron Age until the around the 10th century AD were black, as explained in a new history book for CHILDREN.

It is believed by these crackpots that the ancient Picts who inhabited Scotland from the late Iron Age until the around the 10th century AD were black. As shown in the photograph below from the 9th century, the Picts have captured an Englishman and are in the process of inflicting excruciating pain upon him. Just one example from the new Labour & Liberal Wokepress Ltd book at just £1,255 from Amazon.

So presumably when the Scots saw the Norman invasion in England and Wales they made hundreds of ships and sailed off until they bumped into Africa. They then populated it with black Picts wearing grass skirts instead of kilts due to a lack of sheep and wool weaving factories. As the English and the Scots have always fought each other. When, centuries later the English discovered Africa, old rivalries surfaced resulting in the battle of Rorkes Drift and the making of the historically accurate movie Zulu.
So concludes todays true and accurate history lesson.

The idea of the Picts being dark-skinned is an old one. In the works of the Pulp writer Robert Howard (creator of Conan), the Picts were a small dark people.

As is usual with this nonsense, there is a tiny grain of truth. The first farmers to migrate to Britain were olive-skinned (from the Middle East). That population seems to have evolved lighter skin as an adaption to the lower light levels of Britain, requiring light skin to avoid Vitamin D deficiency.

That original population was largely replaced by the Celtic invaders from the mainland. The Picts were a Celtic group.

The first farmers to migrate to Britain were olive-skinned

Does that mean green, purple or black?

Prior to (end of the last major ice age) around 6,500 to 8,000 years ago Britain was joined to Europe, so people would have wandered back and forth. An area now under the North Sea now given the name Doggerland no doubt after Dogger Bank a shallow area in the North Sea. Early Britons were probably from Europe. I find it very, very doubtful that it was initially populated by Mediterranean tribes.
Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany (Angles & Saxons were German tribes) and others relocated to Britain and continued to do so for centuries. The last invasion being the Normans, originally being from the so called Viking tribes from Western and Northern Europe who had taken over most of France. The advice "go West young man" did not originate in the USA but in Europe thousands of years ago.

Britain is now being invaded by dark skinned Mediterranean tribes called The Boat People who don't claim to be farmers and appear to have no abilities, or tendency to do any productive work, or pay tax.

The first human settlers of Britain were hunter-gatherers who arrived by way of Doggerland. Around 4000 BC they were replaced by far more numerous farmers of Mediterranean origin.

As for the recent immigrants to Great Britain, it is worth noting that of the 10 richest Britons, 4 are either immigrants or the children of immigrants. All of them made their money in Britain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_billionaires_by_net_worth.
