Apparently someone started a petition to have the statue of Edward Colston in Bristol reinstated.
It was rejected, as the government is not responsible for local statues. However, it would be like a city in Germany petitioning for a statue of Hitler to be reinstated. When all's said and done, Hitler did get the trains running on time, so he couldn't have been all bad...
It's sad state of affairs when people care more for statues than people.
