I suspect a raft of changes to street names is due in Liverpool.

Possibly not; a historian who specialises in slavery found no evidence in it being named after James Penny and instead believes it’s named after a nearby hill.

Be interesting to see how it affects the livery companies / merchant societies or whatever you call them across the bigger cities, who tend to be the ones (along with Nigel Farage etc.) who feel most strongly about maintaining the status quo.

There's a nice thread here about it below - this is an opportunity to learn how to democratise our public spaces while also learning more about our nation's history, and think about the kinds of stories we want to celebrate.

It’s more expensive to pull it out of the dock than to lift it down now. It’s a good call.

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

Does 'being a bit too keen on hitler' cover these words in the second of his two letters to the German leader?

'Such are your humiliation of Czechoslovakia, the rape of Poland and the swallowing of Denmark. I am aware that your view of life regards such spoliations as virtuous acts. But we have been taught from childhood to regard them as acts degrading humanity...'

And whilst he addressed hitler as 'dear friend', that should be seen in the context of his statement that Dear friend, that I address you as a friend is no formality. I own no foes.'

No it was the bit where he waited for the battle of France to be lost and then ordered us to surrender to a ‘good man’

Where would you park your crane?

You'd surely have more luck getting some leverage under Durdle Door with a crowbar and trying to flip the whole thing upside down onto Dogger Bank.

I've stumbled across that fella before (not surprsisingly, we're probably in the same echo chamber!).

He posts some interesting and thought provoking stuff. He captures my unease over the vandalism versus constitutional change really well in that thread. It's taken a bit of anarchy to get the system to move so sometimes it's necessary.
