I know Friday night dinner joked about a pub being called something similar.

We've got Whiteladies Rd and it continues to Blackboy Hill ~ the Blackboy pub located on the hill changed its name years ago.

Not everyone is so delicate as to try and force the world to bow to their sensibilities

It tells me so much more about the utter morons who pretended to be offended about this

[Zizu]

There are sooo many fake stories around like the one about schools banning Baa Bas Black sheep which was complete Bollox apparently

[Redway]

The “Formerly Black Boy Lane” inscription at the bottom of the new name makes the whole thing seem redundant.

yes it does, but they have to do that until maps etc get updated, it's standard practice. It needs to be viewed in the long term rather than short term. So in 10 years or whatever it will only be known by the new name

They even left the
old "offensive" name on the sign

Good use of Ł189,000?]



Emily Carver Stated

The issue isn't that that particular sign cost 189k, it's that it costs that amount of money to do that type of road work. Thats where the complaint should be (if it is true) not against the changing of the sign itself. It's pretty obviously an over exaggeration by someone who doesn't give a toss about who is offended
