Calling this now - if we start seeing large-scale removal of monuments of those now viewed as morally-questionable in this country, we're going to see a shitfuck of a reaction from a growing extreme right wing.
The Bristol slave-trading one seems to be a long over-due and I can possibly see why perhaps Cecil Rhodes should come down from the face of Oxford Uni, but I read a list earlier of other candidates and it seemed a lot of them were pushing the bounds of rational justification.
Educate people, allow history's lens to evolve and recognise the place these people had in their day. Their monuments needn't exist to inspire unblinkered positivity, instead reflectivity. You can't undo history, you can only learn from it.
I can't see what the end goals for this apparent cancel/offence culture is. How far back do you go? How dark a transgression meets whatever liquid criteria is the focus of ire this day?
Should we rename London because it has the stain of imperial conquer? Should we smash down Hadrian's Wall?

"You do not survive the illness through fortitude and strength of character, whatever the prime minister’s colleagues will tell us, and the disease is not a great leveller – the consequences of which everyone, rich or poor, suffers the same.
Those on the frontline right now; bus drivers and shelf-stackers, nurses, care home workers, hospital staff and shopkeepers are disproportionately the lower-paid members of our work force.
They are more likely to catch the disease because they are more exposed.
Those who live in tower blocks and small flats will find the lockdown tougher. Those in manual jobs will be unable to work from home.
This is a health issue with huge ramifications for social welfare, and it’s a welfare issue with huge ramifications for public health."

Hans – I'm a pissed off as Corbyn was probably the only release from neo-liberal Conservative politics. I don't even think his somewhat socialistic ideals were that radical, but I can completely understand how he's lost when he's failed the Brexit voter. It's almost comical how Cameron said we needed a Brexit vote, and all it's done is bring segregation to a country so multicultural it's easy to divide. 5 more years of conservatism is sincerely frightening as a creative, with friends who have worked their entire life in the NHS or as teachers. There is literally no social movement anymore, and it seems as though that is the political goal to implement their control and power.

- the fallen of the past wars. That is what killed it for Labour.shapesalad

- temporary caretaker PM? Lots of blame to go around.yuekit
- pretty much yep. but cancelling Brexit is/was a terrible idea. Let the tories own it, they have a long to do list and when it goes wrong which it willfadein11

I wonder what Brexit-voters thoughts are on who will replace the population of people going back to the EU? Or perhaps they didn't think that far ahead?
.
I'm irritated to shit that we'll have to sort out whatever bullshit this Settled Status thing is, for my partner.
The more this goes on, the more furious I am with shithead Brexit-voters. I think up until now I'd been under the delusion it might not come to pass.
- Sorry for you, mateOBBTKN
- Oh, if it all goes totally tits up, it'll make my partner finally want to leave London, so I might get to move to the EU. BadNairn kind of wants this to happen.Nairn
- but it is so sickening for me to see my country stab itself in the face like it has. We'll be a parasitic tick on an economic bloc we've made weaker.Nairn
- "We'll be a parasitic tick on an economic bloc we've made weaker." superb quote :)fadein11

I said this 2 years ago and I'll say it again... Over the years lot's of us have gone through good and bad times on QBN, but many of us post here to vent or get moral support. Now that this Brexit thing is happening I see lot's of you guys are worried about the starvation, jobs, family, etc. I just want you all to know if you find yourself down on your luck and need a place to stay, ya'll are more than welcome to stay at my place in Queens, New York—and I mean this sincerely. Regardless of what happens, remember, there's always be plenty of room on my back porch for you.
