Odd how the people losing their shit over a statue of a slaver being destroyed don't get upset about all the fine old buildings destroyed every year for the sake of profit. It's almost like they're using faux concern about heritage as cover for something else #ColstonHasFallen
Also Bristol: in 2017, a developer deliberately destroyed a magnificent 17thC ceiling to stop it being listed. Anyone remember the Home Secretary screaming outrage about it? Right-wing columnists also? No, me either #selectiveoutrage #ColstonHasFallen bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n….
As far as I'm concerned, Colston should stay in the river until Bristol takes ownership of its past + builds a proper slavery museum, like Liverpool. Then Colston can be hauled out and put on display in it, in the condition that he comes out the river. #ColstonHasFallen
