****ing pathetic. It will be a disgrace if they change the name. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-27527119
It isn't even the Indians though, they couldn't give a ****. It is the blacks and left wingers, just the usual suspects really.
North London piss-heads will be aware that the famous "Black Boy" Pub in Tottenham changed it's name a while ago. Being a retired piss-head myself, I only found this out the other day. Was a bit gutted, had many lost nights in there. Mind you, it did get a bit embarrassing asking African minicab drivers to drop you off there.
I believe that was quite a common name for pubs over a hundred years ago, I found a trading token bearing the name: http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/289338
ST slips in there for a quick one whenever he's in London. Yeah, I think the name's actually a reference to chimney sweeps. There was a picture of one on the Sign.
That makes sense, don't suppose there were many negroes in London in the 17th Century. Thanks, gives me a bit more info on one of my finds
