    "I do solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm that I will well and truly serve the Queen in the office of constable, with fairness, integrity, diligence and impartiality, upholding fundamental human rights and according equal respect to all people; and that I will, to the best of my power, cause the peace to be kept and preserved and prevent all offences against people and property; and that while I continue to hold the said office I will to the best of my skill and knowledge discharge all the duties thereof faithfully according to law."

    Who on earth would create a placard with FMM as circled in red. How sick is that.

    Pretty much as sick as it gets , never forget the lowest standards you see displayed can always be taken to the next level, down

    I'd hate to be studying History in school right now - last week's answer would be wrong this week thanks to revisionist - we can't solve the problems of today why the feck are we worrying about what was considered OK all of those years ago - just make sure we do the best we can today

    If you forget your past then you'r repeat the same mistakes. Those statues should be there as a reminder of what was good but as equally as bad and just how far we've come as a society.Theres now a petition to have the Picton Monument in Carmarthen taken down, just where will it, if at all stop.
    Although not on the same scale ISIS did something similar when they held control in Iraq, Syria and Libya , once they're gone they tend to stay gone .

    Its getting scary now , there will be a backlash of some sort as people are getting angry and the support for BLM from normally tolerant people will and has diminished

    Things could get nasty if the reports of ‘football fans’ defending statues, as you posted above, are true ......

    maybe that's what it'll take before :
    A the police crack down on the "peaceful protesters "
    B The Government shows some leadership and a pair of testes

    Had a shock this morning, when a young black girl was in a heated argument with a black professor . She disagreed with the damage that they were doing, and demolishing statues. She said it was history, and did not affect her, and that it was pointless banning films like " Gone with the wind " And as that Britons show, she actually enjoyed it and thought it hilarious . ........... She really had a go on TV. ........... good on her.
    Sky must have made a big mistake inviting her to speak, As all other people on their shows, are all in favour of removal of just about every bloody thing.. ............. what the bloody hell has gone wrong with this country?
    It is hard to believe that both Sky, and B.b.c. are so one sided, and only interview Black protesters.
    That Black Girl shook them this morning.
