This statue [should remain] untouchable Statue of William Wilberforce presenting a 'golden' scroll (probably the 1807 act to abolish the slave trade). It stands on a 90 ft./27 m high column, designed by the architect John Clark of Leeds. Initially, the monument was planned as only a column, the addition of a statue was an afterthought of April 1835, and was placed on the column on 19 November 1835. He hasn't got the Abraham Lincoln treatment - yet. Why don't they rally round monuments to people like Wilberforce? I wouldn't mind betting they've never heard of Wilberforce, Granville Sharp, Hannah More and Charles Middleton. The striking feature of the BLM movement is their complete ignorance. The school teachers and university lecturers who taught them must be very proud.

""The striking feature of the BLM movement is their complete ignorance. The school teachers and university lecturers who taught them must be very proud.""
Must disagree a bit here Fretty ! They Know exactly what they are doing, they know the score all too well but they are pushing their own mantra and if that means blackguarding folk like Wilberforce to further their cause, then so be it.
Back in the days of the DDR, the east Germans had a squad who used to go out at night and scrawl swastikas on synagogues so the Government would have an excuse to crack down on ,''Neo-Nazis" (which did not exist)

And now they've got a couple of generations under their belt it's intensifying. Kids don't leave school brimming with all these so-called progressive ideas and pass them on to their lecturers, no, they are indoctrinated by those lecturers, and lecturers who disagree never work again. There are gaps. Like when one of their own gets caught out.... The rapper Wiley. Afer his unhinged and seemingly interminable anti-Semitic rant, the rapper Wiley has been dropped by his management and is being investigated by the police. As if that weren’t enough, his tweets have provoked renewed calls for tighter regulation of speech on social media. www.spiked-online.com/2020/07/28/you-cant-defeat-racism-with-censorship/What did the [young] left have to say about this naked racism? Lily Allen admits calling out Wiley anti-semitism feels ‘isolating’
Lily Allen admits that speaking out on issues like anti-semitism following the Wiley controversy feels ‘isolating’, and has called out her so-called friends for not checking to see if she is OK.todayheadline.co/lily-allen-admits-calling-out-wiley-anti-semitism-feels-isolating/Well, she couldn't bring herself to to do anything but worry about herself. Besides, calling out racism in one of your own feels, well, a bit isolating. Many have noted the hypocritical double standards on social-media outlets in relation to anti-Jewish racism. If you misgender a trans person, you’ll be booted off Twitter and other platforms faster than you can say the word misogyny. ...
Yes, the racist tweets were eventually removed. But Wiley was then slapped with a mere seven-day ban from Twitter and Instagram, which suggests that in the minds of the woke suits who run Silicon Valley, expressing profound racial contempt for the Jewish people is less bad than referring to a person with a penis who wanted to force female beauticians to wax his bollocks as ‘he’. That’s what got Meghan Murphy permanently exiled from Twitter. Other feminists have also been booted off the platform forever for referring to people with penises as men. This needs answering, the question of why calling a man a man is a worse speechcrime than calling Jews snakes.www.spiked-online.com/2020/07/27/wiley-isnt-ill-hes-racist/All from a bunch of very twisted adults in education etc.

Lily Allen is mixed race and it is my experience that mixed race folk feel as we say in Yorkshire, 'neither nowt nor summat'. they don't know where they belong, they feel too good to be part of the black community but they know that the white community will not accept them. Lewis Hamilton is the same, he wants to be taken seriously off the race circuit but everything he tries leads to ridicule whether it is the silly cornrow hairstyle, the vulger tattoos, or the flashy dimond earrings he affects. The old adage, 'money cannot buy you everything', was never more true !
I was lucky to be taught at a Boys school by teachers who were mostly ex Servicemen, guys who were dropped at Arnhem, guys who served with Monty in North Africa, etc and they all knew the score and they passed their knowledge and experiences on to us. No Pussies, Wussies or shirtlifters in Middlesbrough schools back in those days !
It's different now of course, although there are not that many of them, the woke self-righteous, virtue-signalling goons have the power because somebody arranged that they got slid into positions where they assumed the power they now exercise to coerce and cajole us. If I ever won the Lottery then I would arrange a lot of them to 'disappear', starting with Fran Unsworth, the world would be a better place too !

At primary school I got slippered, caned and even picked up by my hair. But I didn't go back for seconds. If I complained my parents would ask me what I'd done to deserve it. Now they just charge down to the school and thump them. Mind you, these teachers are nothing like those who taught me in the early 60s. Having assumed control and suspended liberties and rights, they are struggling to keep it going hence the fabled second wave (in midsummer? yeah right). They really are running out of ideas....

We need a Vaccination developed as fast as possible, it would be the best solution to the problem.
