Right wing snowflakes strike again with the misinformation.


[Councillors vote to move statue of British war hero after officials said it 'impacts anybody who does not define themselves in binary gender terms'
Review advised statue's relocation due to general's connection to British Empire
An equality impact assessment was also
undertaken as part of the council review
Councillors in Exeter, Devon,
have since voted in favour of the report's findings
Relocation will cost at least £25k,
but is not clear where statue will be moved to
