I was at the local Chinese getting a take away, one of the few times I carry cash with me.
While waiting, the discussion of using cash rather than tap to pay came up...
This lady... "I can't believe they have the nerve to remove Churchill from the tenner.."
Me: "Oh.. is he not on the fiver?..." going into pockets and checking my notes...
Lady: "I don't care, they shouldn’t be allowed to remove him!"
Me: "Don't they change the person every 10 years or so...?"
Lady: "They are not allowed to change him... don't they know what he did for this country!?"
Me under my breath and thanking the lord that my food is ready.. "you mean the racist that they booted out of office as soon as the can after the war?!"
How can someone be so upset about something that they know so little about... at least "Do your research" before forming an opinion..
Banknotes, beavers and a very British backlash
Politicians are furious Churchill will be replaced on banknotes. The RSPCA wants rats and pigeons to feature.
