    Fantastic documentary. My father was form Aden (Yemen) my mother from sheffield…..I’m proud to be of mixed heritage. Documentaries like this need to be shown as a lot of the younger generation have no clue why or how their ancestors came to Britain

    He said "over three and have thousand voluntary Yemeni sailors died during the first world the Cardiff community alone lost 1000 men which is a huge amount for a relatively small community"...
    Wherever the Yemenis go, they make sacrifices to the country where they live and they work honestly and they do not cause chaos

    My grandad is from yemen he died before I was born. He had a ship and he would bring yemenis to work on the docks in Liverpool. I was brought up for 15 years with no knowledge of my dads side of the family. All I know is that my grandad must have had some influence because he met with Winston Churchill. I think his ship was called the Mary rose and I think his name was Ali habourby. If anyone reading this can help if this story resonates with your fsmilys story in Liverpool maybe your grandad knew my grandad I would love to know more about my heritage especially as a British mixed raced yemeni Britain holds the key to ending the war there.

      @Ifrah Ali Mashallah that is nice, yeah I am going through the same thing too lol. I have been told many times I dont look Somali due to my skin and facial features, my skin is tan as well so they think I look more Yemeni. I can tell you are Somali because of your name, beautiful name mashallah. Basically my dad is a quarter Somali because my granddad was half Somali half Yemeni, my grandma is Yemeni.

    Most came from Aden, which speak English already, British colonized Aden for 125 years. And when the British left, they left Aden in political battle between the tribes and city folks. British took resources from Aden 125yrs, now it's time pay back. But, Aden people do have a lot of good memories when the Brits were in Aden. Pray for Aden! Aden is beautiful everyone wants a piece of Aden, but, not everyone deserves Aden. And we are Adenies, we are Aden nationalist forever, south Arabian.

      @@Mmm-gp9bb Yemeni have a history of claiming things for money. Starting with Mecca kaba, ect. They are not invaders but if they find a way they will take. Aden was a sultanate. People migrate to Aden from Yemen, India ect. Just because your personal ancestors are from Yemen doesn’t make Aden Yemen. Aden is part of Arabia. There are makes dating from 1300 no mention of Yemen. If Aden belong to Yemen then why did they destroy it. Shut water system, electricity, invited immigrants, shut down business and manipulating the educated people in Aden to go to Yemen incentivize by houses, salaries ect. They don’t love anyone. Ever heard of the Yemeni gov funding scholarship for other Arabs, no! They only take.

      The most of them were working in ships nd were not mingled with British people coz they spend their time in ships. So when they were arriving the British shores, even they often didn't enter the cities till they retired after that they lived in UK, but some of them were speaking good english and some speaking little. But who came to the UK and stayed in the UK these people were speaking perfect English and their kids speak just English and some Arabic .
      This the main reason
