i would have it removed if he was a paedophile like you suggest he was
what!?
from Wiki:
"Scouting for Boys: A handbook for instruction in good citizenship is a book on Boy Scout training, published in various editions since 1908. Early editions were written and illustrated by Robert Baden-Powell"

ohhh... i thought you meant scouting for boys, grooming, rings and dirty pica and all that...sorry
he,s only been up 12 years,maybe if all those down there saying he must stay went home and read up about the man,some may change their mind,
I havnt read up but will do at some point,
I,m sure if they were statues of wieldstein,epstien,people would have took them down, the right have been hammering labour over anti Semitism for 5 years now defending a possible supporter of hitler

These are historic things. Three years ago the current boss of the WHO put up a man known for genocide of his own people as a goodwill ambassador for the WHO. I saw no riots about that.
according to sussanah reid and gmb he was a nazi sympathiser, doesnt say that fact at all on wiki if ive read it correctly.
it seems piers wants to erect a statue of tom moore up,
, until we may find out a few skeletons during his 100 years

Let's face it the statue Piers Morgan wants put up is a statue of Piers Morgan.
Right next to the one Peston will put up of himself. With a long s p a c e d o u t s t u p i d q u e s t i o n b e lo w i t.
More kowtowing to the mob. We're a pathetic society, just pathetic.
How about put some security on it and pass a new law that allows chucking anyone vandalising it into the water tied to a concrete replica?

A nazi sympathiser? The scouts were banned in Germany, Italy and most fascist states of the 1930s.
Whatever Powell may have personnally thought his scout movement has done far more good around the world and continues to do so
world jamborees etc hardly conducive to racism is it? This is madness by some woke c*nts who have jumped on the bandwagon.

There was me thinking all the fuss was because he was considered a nonce and was certainly known for enjoying looking at pictures of naked boys. You lot can stick up for him all you like.
People saying this is getting like "denouncing" from a f*cked up communist state are not far wrong.
Plenty people have been accused in the past of these ''nonce'' things, some true most not (but the damage is done) - without hard evidence...
Your source isnt Tom Watson is it?

erm no. Baden Powell looking at photos of nude young boys is well documented! Do an internet search. Unlike some on here I don't make it up as I go on. Opinion is one thing. Posting ideas and thoughts as fact are something else. Who has or wants Zulu banned?
at least its real life some woman on sky bragging her grandkids come down every week and climb on him sit on his knee,he really has gone to paradise, 
yeh like everything on the internet is true
if it was so well documented why did the statue go ahead why no but he's a peado dont do it? Maybe there wasnt a bandwagon to jump on ... all aboard you mugs!

I heard that this morning and thought if only she knew
On the one hand he is accused of being against homosexuality, the next he is accused of looking at photos of naked boys.
He can't win!
He can't win!

Because it's not part of the narrative. Do keep up. It's a shame JC didn't get it, in December. We would have you now sent to a cultural re-assessment training camp!!
He wasn't accused of looking of photos of naked boys Jack he did look at photos of naked boys!
Ahh so it transpires the person behind the campaign to get the Powell statue removed is, dah-dah-dah, a Corbynista failed Labour candidate and Labour activist.
So dense hateful militant hard left wing garbage. Nobody can be remotely surprised.
The cultural revolution can't come fast enough for them can it. Hope this email doesn't lead to me being put in a camp for "education".

(I said email to confuse them and put them off the scent while I make a run from block Political Officer).
just as easy to say it wasn't fromage,wolf,evans,flyn all ex ukip who end up on media defending the statue,s
as was just said the wrecking ball knocks down Victorian buildings everyday to be replaced by hardbard one room flats and people saying nothing but want to die on a hill over slave traders etc
people want to protect Churchill statue because they forget his racist past on the account of him defeating hitler,and want to protect bayden powell because they want to forget him supporting hitler,

Sorry, WD,
More power to him, in that case. Or not. Not sure what to think, now.
