Was in Caenarfon on Saturday and walked past this pub. Surprised that BLM haven't burnt it to the ground. 

 

Apparently there's about 20 of these pubs with the same name around the UK with similar signs depicting slaves yet they've all resisted pressure to rename the pubs.

Not sure how they can defend the sign DT posted, but the black boy - Charles II thing is true. Exeter has a black boy road, named after a pub (no longer there), in turn named after Charles because of royalist meetings that allegedly took place there.

Stuff like that  - with a picture of Charles II on the sign - would be fine. And I reckon every old pub with an unusual name should have a plaque to explain it (simply because it's historically interesting). It would help to avoid any misunderstanding like there was over Penny Lane.

He's a thick, bellend, cunt. But what saddens me more is the fact there are thousands more with his viewpoint. 

His initial comment that Diversity were just doing it for 'fame', aren't they quite a big act, doing arena tours and the like? Certainly more so than that raddled old prick.

Bristol has Blackboy Hill and Whiteladies Road.

Yep, his YouTube channel gets hundreds of thousands of views on each video, half of them are probably people who don't agree with him but it all goes into his pocket.
