[London park named after four-time
prime minister William Gladstone could be renamed 'Diane Abbott Park' by Labour Council as part of their slavery review Gladstone Park in northwest London could be renamed after Diane Abbott MP Schoolchildren as young as five asked for suggestions for public space's name They were earlier briefed on the killing of George Floyd and 'systematic racism'] [Gladstone - the British prime minister between 1868 and 1894 and widely considered one of the country's most influential leaders - never owned slaves himself, but his family had links to the trade. William Gladstone's father, the merchant John Gladstone, owned more than 2,500 slaves and was compensated by the British Government when it abolished slavery in the British Empire in 1833. Even though William spoke out in favour of the rights of plantation owners early in his career, he later said the abolition of slavery was one of the great political issues on which the 'masses had been right'.] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ne-Abbott.html Whatever next!

5 year olds were "briefed on the killing of George Floyd"
Who briefed them, Fred and Rose West? Sir Jimmy and Rolf? Epstein and Maxwell? Last edited by Alf; 17-04-2022 at 08:29 PM. |

Let's be fair now, Abbott does have her own legacy - every time a politician says or does something stupid, she trends on twitter in the vein of "imagine if Dianne Abbott had said that!!"

I mean she isn't the greatest candidate for a park being named after, surely they could find a much better past, or present Labour MP for that honour?!
As ridiculous as it might sound (no more ridiculous than what's currently being rumoured) why not name it "Raheem Sterling Park". He grew up in North London, was in and out of trouble as a kid/teen, yet turned his life around and is a pretty good role model to the younger generation. Literally so many better candidates than Diane Abbott.

This woman has served her constituency for years very well... not sure why that one incident can be used as a way to undermine an entire carreer. The media hatchet job on the left of the labour party is still influencing some I see.
