So it is OK to replace one kinfld of eletism with another.

We find a statue dragged down because it offends.

It is then replaced with another statue with a fist raised in the "black power" symbol.

It is totally and completely unacceptable and needs to be removed.

If you want to be the picture of reason, you don't present yourself as a radical.

The statue was remove during the small hours for safe keeping. The "Black Power" symbolism is not very subtle, is it? Those of us who are old enough remember those unsettling times and yet it is now downplayed as a simple 'raised fist'. How times have changed.

They may take all these status down but you can't alter history doubt if things alter much in UK to be honest
That statue looked very threatening glad it's be taken down
