For example, demanding that Bristol apologises for the slave trade. How ridiculous, as if somebody living in 21st century Bristol is responsible for the slave trade!
The biggest crime is the hounding of ex-servicemen involved in any armed action. They were only carrying out orders and the hounding of these men, most of whom are now in the twilight of their lives, is disgusting. We should be honouring them for their bravery not putting them on trial. God help this country if we ever had a conventional WW3 if we relied on these 'snowflakes' to defend us. They ought to go down on their benched knees thanking the men of two world wars plus other conflicts that our servicemen have been involved in so that they can waste their time with such inane activities. Rant over.
