Is the significance of the song known? I would hope so.
It isn't sung with any malice and I can't see them changing, the academics have educated them as to it's history so they aren't ignorant to it's deeper meaning any longer.
"Cultural appropriation" is the biggest BS term going and it's not anything to do with Americans what British rugby fans sing.We don't moan about American Football or Baseball fans and try dictating what they do.
