Under his "reign" public toilets were unavailable in the center of London when I visited. Tourists had to pay to buy something at Maccers etc to be able to use theirs. Strange how those statues were not a problem before SOME people in the UK went OTT hooligans protesters. Remove the past, forget the past, don't learn from the past, repeat the past. Madness. The statue was a misrepresentation of the past. Removing the statue has not removed the past. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her son didn't fall from the tree either, attacking cops and exposing himself to hospital staff. https://www.hamhigh.co.uk/news/crime-court/james-abbott-thompson-charged-with-string-of-hospital-assaults-1-6448342 This removal of statues is simply electioneering by Khan. This sniveling little weasel is simply playing to the gallery to deflect from his appalling record as Mayor on real issues like knife crime. Expect a massive backlash if he tries to remove statues of icons like Churchill etc. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one they have now does not do the bloke justice. One on top of Nelsons column would be so like ...awesome.. It would then be Lynotts column standing in Thin Lizzy square. How cool would that be. Black and Irish. Can't get more PC than that !! Black and Irish does sound like the PC dream, but The Boys are back in town. Doesn't sound very inclusive to me. Can the girls not come back to the town too? And no mention of the color of the boys, were they white boys? Potential racism looming there. Won't be long before the "woke mob" tear down the Phil Lynott statue!! I totally despair of the left ransacking and trying to overthow Britishness to install their own dreadful system that failed everywhere they implemented it, and caused huge suffering and death tolls. Crush this violent anti-British mob or surrender. It is a clear choice. 2 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A statue is just a statue. It represents only the person that it represents. Should Queen Victoria's statues be also removed as she was the monarch during the colonialist era? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No she did not, the slave trade ended in the British empire in 1808, after which Royal Navy ships fought against it and slavery in the empire in 1833, she became Queen in 1837. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term Great has nothing to do with the country proclaiming itself as powerful and great. its a historical renaming - I think when Scotland became part of the UK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
