^ False (on multiple counts). The UK had generally bad relations with South-Africa from the 1960's, due to the UK Government opposing Aparthied. In reality the last nation to formally abolish slavery in Africa was the muslim West-African nation of Mauritania in the 1980's. They didn't really though (it was pretty much a political smoke & mirrors move), and in recent years it's come back again, as in other parts of Africa previously active participants in the Atlantic Slave Trade & Barbary Piracy. Nobody's really treated Africans worse... than other Africans have.

^×2 Again: False. (as well as SPaG bereft to the point of near gibberish) Several UK banks and businesses engaged in Sanction Busting (as did a few with South-Rhodesia), but that doesn't equate to the UK bankrolling South-Africa, nor approving of nor supporting its domestic policy. And nope once again. Aparthied was many things, most of them bad; but it wasn't a form of slavery; rather a system of forced exclusion from a large part of said country's society. A~and nope. No African state ever had a policy for exterminating its black population, let alone South-Africa. (and not just because it would be impossible to carry out) On the other hand: a black majority african state genociding one of its constituent groups... that has happened on various occasions. (most famously in Ruwanda)

^ yawn Keep repeating that bunch of blarney boyo. It's disjointed gibberish, but you're entitled by western democracy to be a tinfoil hatted loon. Quite hilarious though, as South-Africa, Northern-Ireland & this video's topic have nothing in common XD .
