If I said what I really think about this unbelievably stupid behaviour I would get myself banned.....

Unless it is stopped I really do fear for the future of our once great nation.

Why cant people leave things alone.

You cant change our history and some folks who have only more recently had the privilege to join our society, want to destroy some of the most important historical figures from our past.

Makes me sick to read their unwelcome wishes and desires to trash our heritage.

Perhaps they should consider moveing elsware in the world rather than destroying our wonderful heritage warts and all. :g44:

Indeed... and the saddest thing of all is that we are breeding our own idiots now thanks to left wing brainwashing from nursery school to university.

It won't end well that's for sure.

It looks like an academic who is trying to raise a reputation by jumping on the PC bandwagon and has 'suggested' this be the next statue to be removed. I bet he isn't successful, but he got his name in several papers which was the objective! :g64: :g64: :g64:

The statue is a warning to government to behave themselves ..
They need a reminder now & then.
I agree about the academic wannabee.
