The other faces are of Mick and the Stones. Look closely and you’ll see what I mean.

In these times Chestnut Tree would fit better than Willow Tree.

Sad isn’t it? I wish we had a place with a name like that around where I live.

I was at a dog show about 20 years ago. The announcer came on and announced there was a black bitch roaming around without a collar or leash.

Maybe they should keep the name but change the picture from a dog to a black woman.

The first thing I thought of when seeing the headline was, “they named a pub after a BLACK DOG”?

The first thing I thought of when seeing the headline was, "how'd they think to name a pub after Moochelle 350 years ago?"

They should just finally rename "England!"

The name "England" is racist, insofar as it implies that it is the "land" of the "Angles."

It is thus an insult to all the POCs who have recently been invited onto the island and are gradually establishing cultural and political dominance there. (Numerical dominance is not far behind.)

So rename it "Airstrip One" already and be done with it!

Regards,
