You are probably right I just think the people of bristol should have decided not mob rule.


They did. Thousands signed a petition to remove it. Community groups lobbied to at least have the plaque altered but the council didn't go through with it.

The people of Bristol will decide what statue will take its place. It won't be another slave trader.

Ah right, so it's ok for her to be part of a mob dragging the statue towards the docks? That's ok is it?

A petition is not letting the people decide. More Bristol people did not sign the petition than signed it.

They should have held a local referendum that is democracy not letting the mob rule .

It was sheer criminal damage.

No, and I have already explained that.. But if she doesn't like it here after what happened a couple of hundred years ago, well what can I say, she most probably won't like it anywhere.

Lol all this stunt was funded by c4, pretty pathetic, and also disgusting.

I’m absolutely entrenched in the idea that a mass murderer shouldn’t be celebrated with a statue, you’re quite correct.

There is no evidence that will make me think ‘ah well, perhaps he wasn’t too bad then’.


I could equally claim any random person is a mass murder but Colston was not otherwise he would have been tried and hanged.

But only a fraction of the people of Bristol petitioned for its removal, that doesn’t mean “the people of Bristol “

I was about to post the same thing!! Ebo is a charmer "good at making shit up", then he himself gets all the facts wrong, or which I suspect is too dumb too understand.

I've yet to see you swayed by any argument from anyone who has differing opinions to you on any subject whatsoever. So entrenched is part of your online persona yes.

Owned shares in a company that traded slaves?

Don’t be such an apologist.

“ In his mid-40s, Colston became prominently involved in Britain’s sole official slaving company at the time, the Royal African Company (RAC). Colston served the company for a dozen years (1680-1692) as a major investor, manager and deputy governor. During this time, 84,500 enslaved Africans were transported on RAC ships, with 23% dying before reaching shore (19,300). This included women and children as young as six — each enslaved person was branded with the company’s initials on their chest. To maximise profit, the ships hulls were divided into holds with little headroom, so they could transport as many enslaved people as possible. The unhygienic conditions, dehydration, dysentery and scurvy killed nearly 20,000 enslaved Africans during the crossings. Their bodies were thrown overboard. 12,209 of the captives were children of 10 years or below. 1 in 4 children died en route. Archival research by Reverend Wilkins in the 1920s showed that Colston served actively on all of the major managing committees of the RAC. He left the company just before its gradual financial decline.

Contrary to popular belief, this was not the end of Colston’s involvement in slavery. As an MP in his 70s, Colston petitioned Parliament for the expansion of the ‘slave-trade’, and in Colston’s final years he became a commissioner and major investor in the slave-trading South Seas Company (SSC). It is estimated that he was involved in the SSC from roughly 1714-1720. During this time the SSC transported 15,931 Africans, with nearly 1 in 5 dying en route (around 2,980.)”


Still only a tiny fraction of the millions of slaves traded by the Arab slave traders . I see you have chosen to ignore that.

Glad to see the Bristol mayor say the new statue erected by a London artist will be removed.

He also said the people of Bristol will decide what goes on the plinth.
Sense at last.

You do realise that anarchists are neither left or right? They hate politics


I thought it was the notion of authority they hated? Politics is everywhere and all around, even if we didn't have governments.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Killing black people wasn't considered murder in the 17th century. Not for the first time, you've missed the point entirely.

If there any statues of Arab slave traders in the UK feel free to go find them and pull them down.

I think it would be a very good idea to remove the plinth and leave an open space.
