Red Ken calls for Gandi statue in Parliament Square!...

London Mayor Ken Livingstone has suggested that a statue to Indian rebel leader Mahatma Gandi should be erected in Parliament Square alongside that of mass murderer and terrorist Nelson Mandela. The self confessed pro-Islamist was present at the unveiling of the Mandela statue last month.

Mr Livingstone said: "If you're looking for people who represent a major part of our history, which South Africa is, or you think of India, I wonder whether or not we shouldn't be looking at having a statue of Mahatma Gandi, who perhaps had a bigger significance on the British Empire than anyone else, because two thirds of it got independent overnight.

"You get millions of people from all over the world who come to see Big Ben and see the statue of Churchill and so on, and here's someone they would understand.”

But there is some truth in Livingstone’s comments about the ignorance of British history.

"In a thousand years they'll still know who Mahatma Gandhi was, whereas if you wander round Trafalgar Square, the two generals there, you have to go and check the history books."

So very true, our youngsters are no longer taught about our national heroes and heroines; our inventors and engineers, our explorers and geniuses of scientific breakthrough, our military leaders and builders of Empire. Instead history classes are replete with lessons about “interpretations of slavery”, “Native American”, “the American civil rights movement”

One thing is for certain – Red Ken will have no statues to remember his acts of treachery to the people of Britain.
