NTD’s Lee Hall sits down with Kristian Niemietz, Editorial Director at the Institute of Economic Affairs. Kristian's new book presents empirical evidence that the British Empire was not very profitable. He says the idea that Britain’s success was built on colonialism and the slave trade does not stand up to scrutiny.
