What a load of nonsense! There is a black boy pub near me in Henley and although they did change the picture on the sign (to a dirty, chimney sweep), they kept the name.


"what is clear is that there is a perception that it is linked with racism today and we want to make this positive change for the better,"

Why on Earth would anyone with a shred of decency have an issue with that?

Pub names have quite often changed through the centuries, often in reflection of local politics and fashions. This is quite literally, nothing to get excited or angry about.

If you are excited or angry about it, you probably need to take a good hard look at yourself.


I'm neither.
