Those two, their friends and supports are likely to be embittered now and their views entrenched. Not sure how things could have been handled differently but we need a kinder, gentler anti-racism. |  |

One of them strung up their collection of toys and then put it on social media. From that I’m pretty certain that their views are pretty much entrenched. There’s only so far reason and being nice gets you. F**k them. |  | |  |

Surely they're just acknowledging the contribution of other cultures to the Great British Empire? |  |

Exactly. Feck ‘em. Society can’t pander to these people and their self-entitled opinions. |  |

I don't think Braverman and the Mail were gentle or kind in their support for what are clearly racists. Indeed, in my view their behaviour is just as racist as the landlords', and it could be argued that they threw those two under a bus in an attempt to shore up the Tory vote. And it wasn't just the dolls but the fact that they were hung from the ceiling, and the landlord made allusion to hangings in Mississippi. [Post edited 4 May 2023 15:05]

The perfect ending to this story is that those pub owners reckon they're going to give up on the UK and move abroad. I feel sorry for the satirists. |  |

I wonder what racist Eden they will find, wherever it is lets hope they encourage more to follow. [Post edited 4 May 2023 15:29]

I think it’s a great way for things to end. If people are racist they risk losing their reputation and business! |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Just before the Brexit vote a staunch leaver I know declared that the UK was going to the dogs under EU law and that he would emigrate to Spain if we didn't leave. |  | |  |

And I came across someone before the Brexit vote who had retired to Spain for 10 years but then gone back, and were voting Brexit, the effect of which would prevent others doing what they had done. |  | |  |

There was a documentary some years back, interviewing some of these thickos, They did not think that the brexit immigration rules applied both ways. Much like Alf Garnett who argued against being labelled a foreigner when he was abroad "How can I be a foreigner, I am English ?" "But when you are in another country you are a foreigner" replied his wife |  | |  |
