Popular Post JonnyF Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 Khan is a disgrace. Ruining TFL, knife crime out of control, anti-semitism running rife, a politicized police force more concerned about LGBT tweets than serious crime, livelihoods destroyed by ULEZ and now this. Of course, the Brit haters and leftists will be delighted that his is ruining the capital. Let's hope his reign as mayor is short lived. Roll on May. 3 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the original agreement to continue to use the plinth as a rotating art exhibition is not ditched, are we in danger of the general population forgetting her any time soon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like you are one of those with no clue what the word means. I disagree, you have in the past displayed very strong bigotry. I have found that the definition of woke, depends on what a particular person of group, wants it to be. Are you also a progressive? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry the two genders is grounded in fact, and is not a religious dogma. The contrived genders are not genders at all except in the minds of the deluded.

JonnyF Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 3 hours ago, ozimoron said: I know I'm "woke". I'm proud to be educated, enlightened and not bigoted. Plenty of bigotry from the Wokeists. Let's start with their attitude towards... Jews/Israel. Conservatives (especially if they are black, cue the "Uncle Tom" and "superficially black" insults). Cultural appropriation (one direction only, they have no issue with black women straightening their hair for example). Those who reject identity politics. "Positive" discrimination (a synonym for supporting discrimination against white people). People who believe in the nation state/borders. People who believe in biological reality e.g. believe women do not have male genitalia or that men cannot be pregnant. In fact, pretty much anyone who does not subscribe to their own Woke beliefs. I'd argue the more Woke someone is, the more bigoted they are. As for educated and enlightened? I'd say ignorant, dogmatic, sanctimonious, pretentious, gullible and neophilic are more accurate descriptions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say ignorant, dogmatic, sanctimonious, pretentious, gullible and neophilic are more accurate descriptions. I have no issue with Jews. None. Or with Israelis, only their government. As is my right. Black women straightening their hair? I disliked women curling their hair back in the day. Rejecting identity politics is a virtue. "positive discrimination": is an attempt to right the wrongs of centuries of negative discrimination and the inequality that caused. I believe any distinct race or religion has the right to distinct borders based on their democratic will. Failing that, borders should not exist. I don't reject science. Your post reflects racial animus. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottiejohn Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 1 hour ago, PremiumLane said: cos it was always destined to be a rotating art piece, but you carry on Wrong. That only started at the end of the 1990's! The fourth plinth is the northwest plinth in Trafalgar Square in central London. Was built in 1841. It was originally intended to hold an equestrian statue of William IV, but remained bare due to insufficient funds. In 1998, three contemporary sculptures were commissioned to be displayed temporarily on the plinth. A tradition that has been continued till today!

RuamRudy Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 2 hours ago, transam said: Correct, stick to the topic..........Tell us how you think SK is right to ignore probably one of the best GB (UK) Monarchs... How is he ignoring her? There is a long standing agreement to use the 4th plinth for a rotating series of art works. He is simply allowing that agreement to stand. Why don't you commission a statue of Betty for your front garden? Surely any and every square inch of land should be festooned with her likeness less we all forget her very existence? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
