Its funny really that some people who seem to think that this is somehow acceptable because 'thats just the way it was' are the first to decry other cultures practices that they don't agree with.

No, it's eradicating the statue. The telling of history is not dependent on the statues existence. The statue was a celebration of a man who really shouldn't be celebrated.

I don't need to and nor should you need to ask. The TV screen backs me up.

Now you're being silly. An American is murdered by US police. Suddenly a 200 (not 100) years of faded past, that concerns nobody in the UK, becomes the central point of your argument. Shouldn't your central point focus on what some of our police might be doing wrong rather than this slavery tosh?

By your logic, we should should be all over Germany for what happened 80 years ago.

And don't forget, it was the past slavery etc that resulted to some extent on the immigration to the UK that led to the births in the UK of the current generation who might otherwise, one way or another, still be in Africa.

Think.

We can agree there. It may be that the anarchy on the streets that BLM has brought to parts of the UK will result in institutionalised change to memorials of that type. But these anarchists want Churchill branded as a racist. It goes too far and you should not be justifying their actions.
