Another attack on our History and culture from this anti-British government has just been announced , historically important figures like Churchill and Shakespeare will be removed from British bank notes to be replaced by wildlife.
While I doubt this will happen because this government are on their way out it is yet another attack on Britishness from this shambolic government.
Quote:Historical figures like William Shakespeare and Sir Winston Churchill will be replaced by images of British wildlife on the next series of Bank of England banknotes.
The public will be given the chance to choose which aspects of nature will appear on the notes to "showcase the UK's rich and varied wildlife".
It marks a shift from more than 50 years of showcasing historical people, including Alan Turing and Jane Austen.
King Charles' portrait will continue to appear on the next series of notes, the Bank said.
The change to wildlife imagery will create an opportunity to celebrate another important aspect of the nation, it added.
It will also make it more difficult for the notes to be counterfeited, while making security features more distinguishable.
