    In my opinion this just looks like a bit of self promotion.
    There’s no quotes from anyone that has complained or been offended.
    There is a quote from the manager
    “Our Dick’s Back carriage ride is the grand finale of our York Dungeon tour, and thousands of guests have already enjoyed this thrilling end to their visit.”

    Look like he’s just being a bit cheeky and getting some free publicity out of it.

    That's exactly how I read it...Dick's back carriage ride

    It's hilarious how the mere hint of woke gets all the usual gammons instantly frothing at the mouth though. They don't need much poking

    Exactly.

    Although on closer reading, whilst this is a Yahoo news page, the origin of the story is by the media outlet representing the harder right wing of the Conservative Party, The Telegraph. And as you say, helps keep the hard right frothers rage in full twitch!
