I'm not saying they're made up names, but if I was making up names they would look like these.
If Viz were gonna do a piece on middle class left-wing activists they couldn't have done any better.
Disappointing no Tabitha was involved.

Milo and Jake are 2 of the Tweenies characters. It's such a pity that Bella and Fizz weren't in front of the judge aswell.

Re: Wasn’t expecting that verdict.
I don’t think the airbrushing of past events has been recent, you just need to observe what’s around you and marvel at Old Tech to realise that.

Probably the bit where you suggested that all of Islam is bad because some Muslims were involved in slavery. I don't think anyone's said that all white people are bad because Colston was a slave trader have they? I think everybody on the thread is in agreement that you know, slavery is bad, and the debate is whether a criminal act is still a criminal act if it's done for the right reasons.
Not sure why you've decided to simplify it to the level of a 15 year old trying to piss his parents off at the dinner table but hey ho, whatever makes you happy

The worrying thing is that the statue has been put on trial and not the defendants.

You're joking surely? That's the most beneficial outcome of all of this. I see that nice Mr Farage is spouting vehemently against this verdict so there can't be much wrong with it. He'll be calling for judges to be politically selected next.

Hmmm, whatever it views on it all, quite clearly its the statue that has been on trial. They tore down a piece of historic public art and threw it in the river. If you did that to the statue of Aneurin Bevan or Bute or anyone else you wouldn't get away with it

I felt that way when they pulled down the statue of Saddam Hussein in Iraq. That's a piece of Art, i was thinking.
