If you wanted to know who the better Prime Minister of England was, then you should've taken your inquiry to /pol/. They're knowledgeable about politics.

William Pitt the elder was a statesmen from the 18th century who was famous for renegotiating the powers that govern the United kingom. Dude essentially put parliament ahead of the king in terms of pecking order for the first time in British history. He also chose friendship with America rather than bankrupting the UK on a never ending war for muh colonies.

Palmerston was a wanksta ass OG drug lord. He's essentially Gustavo from breaking bad in the global opium trade. He's all cool and calm and sinister until you try and not buy his opium and suddenly, BAM he's already shelling your biggest port town. His whole deal was sailing Britain's massive navy around the world like a giant nuclear war head, threatening to blow everyone up who disagreed with him. And it worked. Britain laid down so much abuse during his primeministership that we became super rich and scary.

Of course the greatest PM is the late great Benjamin disraeli. For getting the Jews to buy the Suez Canal for Britain and therefore securing all trade ever in the middle east and med, also his government established workers unions which led to permission to form corporate based football teams and that accidentally evolves into the premier league football. Also her royal nibs queen Victoria fancied the shit out of him.

Man, I should have became a historian.
Reading up on history, especially of places you don't live in is so damn interesting.

Aw shit nigga, this IS a hot debate.

Pitt sounds like he had his shit together and we didn't have to build a third White House thanks to him, but that Palmerston nigga sounds dope as hell.

I'm on the fence.

The true answer is the Duke of Wellington

British prime ministers are famously really really REALLY fucking boring. The few exceptions are fun but most of what they do is such a fucking drudgery to read. For example Palmerston is also famous for wanting to support the American South during the Civil War and he spends most of his time in parliament whining and moaning about it because the South and British could trade cotton and iron like this the golden triangle part 2: slave rave in the 19th century. But parliament is like '' no its not Christian. '' and they argue back and forth and back and forth and back forth until it just doesn't happen and everyone really meekly and grumpily just goes '' well fine ''. It's really anti climatic compared to other political history.

Read about French leaders. Those dudes are dying of syphilis because they're all sex addicts and want to build a land bridge to britain in the shape of a massive cock and March an army down it, and they have dudes who are so invested in their own hype that they think they're made of glass. It's fucking bananas.

The fact the Brits were so civil is what gave them the stability to rule an empire that lasted generations.

The massive amounts of coal and early hydro-power probably helped in its own way.

Fun fact, Brexit was against other white Europeans, and racism towards them have skyrocketed since the vote.

Even a lot of Pakis and blacks voted leave as they they knew they wouldn't get affected by it.

I wonder if he knows that Brexit means more Muslims, as the Tories are now going to import them for cheap labour from the commonwealth instead of Poles and Portguese from the EU?
