The non -repellent campaign to erase the proud history of Great Britain remains Apace. Portraits of National Heroes, including Admiraal Lord Nelson, Sir Francis Drake and Elizabeth I am brought down in the Palace of Westminster in favor of modern icons such as … Pixie Balls-Cooper.
Labor's Home Secretary replaces Good Queen Bess on the walls of parliament as part of a diversity drive to represent more women, ethnic minorities and the disabled.
How dumping Elizabeth I helps to celebrate diversity is not explained. It was only a few weeks ago that the MGBGT+ Brigade claimed that Good Queen Bess was actually a man.
If they are right, it would not make her our first female monarch, because she is often wrongly described, but certainly our first trans -prince, and certainly someone who is celebrated.
Yet Elizabeth was horrible white and probably the extreme right according to today's standards. She would certainly have been a Brexite. So in the garbage can of history, she goes, together with both William Pitts (younger and elder) and other dead white men such as William Wilberforce.
Wait a minute. What do they have against Wilberforce? He led the campaign to abolish slavery. Mind you, that uncomfortable truth – and the fact that the Royal Navy ended the Atlantic slave trade – does not fit into the story of the left that racist, colonialistic great -Britain was ever the worst slavery on earth. So Wilberforce must also be airbrushed from the story.
They have also removed a painting by Queen Victoria Prince Albert's husband, who will probably not go well with members of the penetrating community.
All these embarrassing remains from the past are replaced by the role models of our age such as Pixie.

She may not be disabled or from an ethnic minority, but she is generally admired as a dedicated humanitarian that both opened by her taxpayer-subsidized houses to take on a flood of Syrian refugees that flee war and oppression. Or not, as can be.
Yet nowadays we all have to check our privilege. Throwing the past away is completely anger.
How long before Richard de Lionheart's equestrian image outside the Palace of Westminster is replaced by a bronze monument by that great warrior Keir Starmer in full battledress?
Perhaps when Starmer Donald Trump met in Washington, he presented the president a bust of Pixie Balls-Cooper to replace that of Winston Churchill in the Oval Office.
The first thing Surkeir did when he moved to Downing Street was to get rid of Margaret Thatcher in his study of the portrait of Margaret.
Revisionism emerged after the disturbed Black Lives Matter demonstrations during the 2020 Summer of Domidity.
Images of suspected colonialists were demolished. Streets, buildings and universities were renamed. Even those historical figures with the thinest ties with the slave trade were discredited and declared non-persons.
Left have tried to pretend that the past did not exist. And even if so, it was irreparably racist and bad.

That harmful message has penetrated the curriculum of the schools, which explains why a generation of young people now say they are ashamed of being British. Almost half of Gen Z would not absorb weapons to defend their land.
Museums qualify exhibitions with trigger warnings, explaining that the wealth of Great Britain was built on the back of exploitation and slavery.
In recent years they seemed to have a certain aversion to our military history.
This week we learned that the collection of the philanthropist Lord Ashcroft from 230 BCs was noted in the Imperial War Museum. The museum said it wanted to integrate the medals into 'broader historical stories … within many of the living memory of our visitors'.
Whether they go as far as the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, that their Nelson exhibition 're -interpreted' in the aftermath of the BLM, by placing its bust next to that of a 'trans -goddess', can still be seen.
Let's not hope. But revisionism is a worrying trend everywhere. It is absurd to always look at our history in a modern context. The past was indeed a strange country.
Prominent historians Tom Holland and Simon Sebag Montefiore recently complained that the obsession with the slave trade in particular went far too far.
Sir Francis Drake and Nelson are routinely convinced unfairly as slave traders, with their role to keep Great Britain free from tyranny and banned.
The campaign against Nelson has been conducted for years, long before his portrait without mercy was removed from Westminster. There have even been calls to remove the statue of Nelson from the top of his column on Trafalgar Square.
Fortunately, some people are determined to keep our history and honor our heroes.
I told you this story before, but it is worth repeating. De Loony left London Borough or Haringey, where the Council is busy resuming streets with 'racist' connections, such as Black Boy Lane, has happily passed on a planning application for a new Boozer in Wood Green to be called the Nelson.
Of course they assumed that this was in honor of Nelson Mandela. When the pub opened, they were shocked to see a sign with Admiral Horatio over the front door, everywhere red, white and blue bunting and graphic scenes from the Battle of Trafalgar on the walls of the bar.
Trebles around!
Somehow I can't imagine that someone ever calls a Boozer after Pixie Balls-Cooper.
