Rejected petition Remove All Statues if Fascists and Slave Traders

I would like the government to remove all statues of Fascists and Slave Traders, to promote an equal British Society. Too many former Slave Traders still stand proud which is disrespectful and disgusting in this modern day, action should be taken.

More details

It’s as if we glorify Fascism, Racism, Homophobia etc. This is NOT okay, we demand an equal Britain. Just because one person did one thing for a good reason, does not mean they aren’t a bad person. These statues are still of Fascists and Slave Traders, they must be removed.
