Personally Feel the police should be impartial And are employed to carry out and enforce the rule of the government and should not be engaging or participating in any protests whilst employed on duty this will just Enflame the far right which many will use to misinterpret and use for propaganda
All those months of isolation for nothing ๐

Banksy's Instagram - Black Lives Matter, by Fairxat on Jun 9, 2020 2:51:10 GMT 1, In reference to the uk , the media use ethnic reporters to cover these news items ? Why are not the regular white reporters covering these events ? society creates division unknowingly . I know CNN in London had a white, middle aged reporter on the street... and they had stuff thrown at them while trying to talk live on air... but this was late in the evening, when things were kicking off! The BBC have used Chi Chi Izundu, and as far as I'm aware she's not had the same problem... but seems to have been kept far from any violence, and just covered the daytime, US embassy protests. As far as I know they don't have "white, regular reporters" though. They're always mongrels (if that's a term I can use? )
Itโs always pretty mixed ?

Or a statue of Paul Stephenson who led the Bristol Bus Boycott in 1963 and did a sit-in at a pub that wouldn't serve black people in 1964. Led to the creation of the Race Relations Act.

What exactly happened to DJ Derrick ? He vanished for ages after a fight in a pub then was found in strange circumstances months later ?

I think it would be a braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave artist to put work on that plinth right now. You'd need to read the room *perfectly* - otherwise you run the risk of looking like you're making this about you.
edit: TBF* though, Banksy is undeniably Bristol's most beloved artist, plus his heart and empathy's in the right place, plus he seems to have a good team of people around him that stop him from doing anything too mental, so if anyone's work could go on there, Banksy's is as good as it comes.
*TBF means "to be fair". I sometimes use it so I don't have to type out a whole bunch of words. Lazy, I know.

Having read a bit more about what he got up to, product of his time or not, he did some odious stuff. And I know when you criticise Churchill, people understandably bring up the war, and say stuff like, well you'd be speaking German now if it wasn't for him. And, ja, I get that, but you could also make the argument that many others, if they'd been in power at the time, would've done their utmost to not let Britain or Europe fall to Nazi occupation. Things are complicated and, I think in the eyes of the majority, Churchill gets a pass because while he might've been a bit of a b*stard, he's considered to be *our* b*stard. And looks a bit like a Bulldog, and people love dogs.

He also accused the Indian race of being responsible for the famine, saying "they breed like rabbits". This was while he was insisting that India exported rice to help the war effort. www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-29701767 We blame the rotten spuds
