Legal action against those involved in vandalising memorials in the name of BLM
To actively prosecute those involved in vandalising & desecrating memorials, statues and historical/ Important sites in the name of BLM/BLMUK.
Sites like this have nothing to do with the current political and racial issues going on around the world and I do not believe that such actions are representing the movement in the correct way; I find it disgraceful that people think that it is appropriate to ever do such things and that legal action should be taken against them.
