Times change.......it should be put in a museum so if people want to see it let them go and see it.
There had been petitions before for years to remove it but councils ignored it...the law is an ass anyway.
Slavery is part of our history but doesn't mean you have to show case it today. Stick it in a museum where it belongs...not in public as a reminder of the past....Good decision.......Never forget the past just don't continuously honor the inhumanity by those of the past.....
I think the judge knew the resentment that had caused in Bristol for years...good on him.....
