Perhaps it may have raised a few emotions as ex miners and their families walked past it

Having to walk past that statue glorifying a slave trader was a slap in the face for black people in Bristol.
Only the other day. It's been a slap in the face but suddenly they feel the need now. It's the latest thing to protest and get upset about. People would get more sympathy from me with their "isms" if they wouldn't crow and ram it down my throat at every opportunity.
