Tea is bad for your health if you are of British Descent

BOSTON TEA PARTY
Many people have heard of The Boston Tea Party but few realise its true significance. In fact it is often considered to have sparked off the American War of Independence. In 1773 when the USA was still a colony - the British government of George III imposed a tax on tea imported into America. The colonists refused to pay the tax and their revolt led to the event we now know as the Boston Tea Party. Citizens of Boston dressed as Red Indians boarded British ships in Boston harbour and emptied their cargo of tea into the sea. Other 'tea parties' followed in other ports and - in outrage - the British Parliament retaliated with strong measures - resulting in outright war. Hardly a storm in a tea cup!
