Pince Harry cheating Usain Bolt is significant of colonisation

All of last week the world went into a Prince Harry harried frenzy when the cheeky royal won the world's fastest man- Usain Bolt in a race, through cheating. It made for fantastic Royal PR and no doubt Nana Lizzy couldn't have resisted a chuckle as she saw the videos.
However I couldn't help but think Harry's cheating when Bolt wasn't looking is significant of the colonisation of Africa. Like Bolt, Africans had the rug pulled from under their feet from their 'friendly' visitors when they too were not looking.
We love the cheeky cheat nevertheless, especially his dancing moves. The stony face man at the back (probably an aide) didn't look overtly impressed.
