Let the British public decide which historical statues to remove.
Let the British public decide which historical statues should be removed, as opposed to groups who do not represent the general public. Unauthorised removal should be punishable by law.
The decision of removal should be made by the British public not by a group who take it upon themselves and do not represent the wide public. Make removal illegal unless agreed.
