Shakespeare and Dickens will be next because of the characters of Othello, Shylock and Fagin.

We have positive discrimination as well, just look at the quota system of the BBC which is fine but also leads to ludicrous casting sometimes like the Demi-god Achilles (young, blond, sulky arrogant Greek teenager) in Troy being played by a bald middle-aged black bloke.
If this nation is so racist how on earth would that happen?

Thanks, the quote is from the book -
'Blue Meridian : The Search for the Great White Shark' a classic by Peter Mathiessen which is nearly 50 years old now.

I don't fancy anyone's chances removing Robert Baden-Powell's statue down in Dorset. Not after the group of people I've just seen on the news. One old guy was ready to fight! :D
Its getting ridiculous now. People will fight back. Probably more so in places such as Dorset. I think In general people in places such as Dorset care more about their heritage.

The coverage on Sky compared to the BBC was like night and day.
The BBC are desperate to push the woke agenda as far as possible (like when they call the Pakistani/Bangladeshi Muslim rape gangs 'Asian') but remarkably Netfilx's preposterous decision to remove The Mighty Boosh and the League of Gentlemen (for the acclaimed dark twisted supernatural characters The Spirit of Jazz/Screaming Jimmy Jefferson and Papa Lazaru having dark make up) has not been followed.
Yet.
Here you go wokes shove these up your arse.

WTF has that piece of shit Savile got to do with famous British figures who must be judged in the historicalcontext of the time they were alive and not by 21st century standards?
Have you read Fahrenheit 451?
Where does it all stop?
Tear down the statue of Alfred the Great for being racist towards the Vikings?

Talking of Savile what do BLM and the wokes want to do about all the statues of that freakish nonce Michael Jackson?
I expect the cognitive dissonance will make their ickle heads explode.
Edit - UKTV (owned by the BBC) has now banned the classic 'The Germans' episode of Fawlty Towers.

I mentioned them once, but I think I got away with it alright.'

The statue of the Duke of Wellington in Glasgow is at risk.
This won't go down well because when it was suggested a few years ago that folk stopped putting a traffic cone on his heid, there was a massive backlash and a petition was started and thousands signed it in just a few hours.
"Cony no dae that" was the cry and the cone stayed.
Now I've been to Glasgow more times than I can remember and I have never once seen Dukie without his cone hat.
There could be trouble ahead.

That goes without saying.
I'm sure the BLM 'Remove the statues movement' will see to that and have it removed forthwith.
