Was the Olympic opening show lefty multicultural rubbish?

One has to ask what all that NHS spectacular was all about, and why did they need to show the the 'Windrush' immigrants but failed to include the Asian immigrants expelled from Uganda by Idi Amin?

There was also no mention of the slave trade, which many are forever telling us made Britain prosperous, the only black faces we saw were of the white British 'slaves' who's faces were black from their toils down the mines or in the Iron foundries of industrial revolutionary Britain.

Windrush carried willing people hoping to make a new life in 'the mother country'. The slave ships carried manacled people into a life of abject misery.
