Well, there is an excuse for rioting and violence if ever I saw one. She will have plenty who support her view no doubt. She's a cereal complainer what next FFS. Credit where it's due

Aunt Bessie should be okay as she's white, unless someone takes umbrage at them gender stereotyping, as the logo is a woman cooking. The irony is, replace all of these logos and then people will be whinging that BAME people aren't given enough representation in marketing.... It's a good job the Kia Ora ad isn't on these days. Do they still sell that Um Bongo pop?@

What next to be wiped away do we reckon ? Rule Britannia would be my bet
RULE BRITANNIA (18th Century - Traditional British)
When Britain first, at Heaven's command Arose from out the azure main, Arose from, arose from out the azure main; This was the charter, the charter of the Land And Guardian Angels sang this strain:
Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves. Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves.
The nations, not so blest as thee, Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall, Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall; While thou shalt flourish great and free, The dread and envy of them all.
Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves. Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves.
Still more majestic shalt thou rise, More dreadful from each foreign stroke; More dreadful, dreadful from each foreign stroke. As the loud blast, the blast that tears the skies Serves but to root the native oak.
Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves. Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves.
Thee haughty tyrants ne'er shall tame; All their attempts to bend thee down; All their, all their attempts to bend thee down. Will but arouse; arouse thy gen'rous flame, But work their woe and their renown.
Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves. Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves.
The Muses still with Freedom found Shall to thy happy coast repair; Shall to thy happy, happy coast repair. Blest isle with matchless, with matchless beauty crown'd, And manly hearts to guard the fair.
Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves. Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves! Britons never, ever, ever shall be slaves.

The issue here, for me anyway, is that most people with any common sense would not see this as anything racial. By trying to highlight this as racism all she has done has caused more derision towards the BLM campaign. Fight the battles you can win and fight the battles that mean the most Shit like this does the movement more harm than good

Fight the battles you can win and fight the battles that mean the most Shit like this does the movement more harm than good They certainly seem to be going all scattergun. I think the biggest problem for BLM is it all seems very random. I’m no expert but do they have a leader because right now it just looks like A lot of random people making various comments, accusations and interviews. If they had a respected figure head they’d probably get further right now it feels like they’re losing sympathy due to the violence at protests and some of the ludicrous demands under there banner eg coco pops and swing low.
