I wish I could pretend to care enough about this to bother you with it Tobi, but I don't. I'm sure you have enough people whining about every disagreeable opinion they read

"There is a poster of Winston Churchill inside the entrance to the War Rooms museum in Whitehall. His cigar has been "edited" out !!!"

Are you kidding us? Srsly?

Reminds me of the illustrious John Ashcroft ensuring that all the statues around him were covered with cloth of some sort before any of his press meetings. He didn't want their nasties hanging around behind his head LOL

There's a new coffe table style book out with 14 b&w images of tobacco related illness or some such. I almost fell down laughing when one sincere reviewer called the book 'moving' and went on applauding this book like it's some great work of Art.

Yeah. I wonder if the same book showing all the horrifically ugly images of 'death by texting and driving', (in b&w imagery, of course...that's how you always tell a REAL work of Art lol ), would get as welcome a response

Thanks for not being too offended by my disbelief and offering that link.

I couldn't help but read some of the comments ( I do like to read what other people think sometimes ) and this one struck me as very funny:

"In this stupidly politically correct time in which we live I suppose we ought to think ourselves lucky that they didn’t remove Churchill as well."

They could replace his image with an image of Jude Law. Much better looking; far less offensive in that respect too.

Churchills cigar, Guy Gibson's dog Nigger ...it doesn't end there and it will probably continue to get worse/more ridiculous..
