Once it affects their pockets I'm sure they will need a rethink. The people who vandalise the Cenotaph and statues of Sir Winston Churchill think that "free speech is hate speech" and that people are "privileged" just because of their skin colour. These 'ideas' cannnot be passed off as a mere fad, it is a dangerous phenomenon. Darned "Social justice warriors". I'm on my soapbox. Edited by Willo (17 Feb 2022 11.27am)

Edited by Willo (17 Feb 2022 11.27am) I trust it's an ethically sourced soapbox Willo and definitely one that wasn't used to pack Wright's Coal Tar. Otherwise your home will be blockaded before tea time.
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry. |

I would never drink there on the strength of how they are acting.

If they are refusing to sell Thatchers (the local) cider because of links to The Merchant Venturers, I wonder if they have also banned crisps because the potato was brought to this country by Sir Francis Drake who was also a slave trader.......

Its all happening in Bristol . . . [Link] Ironic that the landlord is called Lemmy. The only reason the real Lemmy wouldn’t have sold any booze is that he’d already guzzled it before whatever passed for his breakfast.

I actually think that it is nice for there to be a place to drink for people who have failed in life and are desperately seeking some attention that they do not otherwise receive as a result of their personalities or achievements. How dare you criticise them.. Nazis the lot of you!
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

To be fair to these sorts, anything called Thatchers was only ever going to be temporarily acceptable

Makes me molten with anger, boiling,steaming and raging. These darned Woke 'Warriors are engaged in a form of Maoism, determined to expunge last parts of our past. Why does it? Have you ever visited the pub or have any plans to? Assuming the answer is no, how on earth have you reached a point where the drinks selection at a pub in another part of the country, makes you 'molten with anger'? Surely a pub landlord has the right to serve whatever drinks he wants? and you as the consumer have the right to go there or not go there based on that selection. If people are not happy with what he's done, the pub will soon go bust. What else are you expecting? Pubs being mandated to serve certain products?

You’ve either totally missed the wider point or are fully engaged with the trend. I’m guessing it’s probably the latter.

Bristol has become the by-word for 'woke'. I much preferred it when it was tits. Then again, perhaps not much has changed. Edited by Stirlingsays (17 Feb 2022 1.39pm)
