    Everyone was very well behaved at the last one, I doubt anyone's planning on trying to scrawl anything on any monuments.

    That's the perfect example of exactly how a point can and should be put across.

    Don't get your snout in the trough?

    The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

    Every nation on Earth has had some form of serfdom at some point in time in history.
    How about levelling all the monumental buildings erected by wealthy landowners over the millennia ?
    There would be nowt left !

    Talking of statues and keeping it to sport, are there any sporting statues in Hull? We have named roads and a golden phone box but no statues, still talk of a proper one for Jack Harrison VC?

    I reckon the current one for Jack Harrison is fine- much better than the 'me too; statues outside many grounds. The worst one in the country must be bremner at leeds. Like a large action man figure with tatty rags draped on it.
    We have major roads named after sports stars - Raich Carter Way, and also the Roger Millward Tenfoot in East Hull.

    I'd like to think we in this city don't give a **** what happens on the streets of America- it has nowt to do with daily life in this country., I can only presume it's lockdown fever.

    We have hundreds of deaths each day due to a virus, people losing their livelihoods and jobs, a massive looming recession affecting tens of millions of British people- don't we have enough to focus on here?
