Yeah, I know there's a few statues up to Jimmy Savile
and he did a LOT of good work for charity, shame to tear down those statues because of some historical stuff. He was friends with royalty and even Margaret Thatcher so don't let's let any political correctness cause all that good work to be forgotten.

Honorary member. Does not count.

Saville fucked kids all his life and got away with it
whether there's a statue or not (and i kind of hope there is. there was still the michael jackson one up outside fulham's ground last time I was there) doesn't change shit about that, nor will pulling it down (or off) do anything. people don't see a statue of saville and think "You know, I've never tried it before, but seeing this statue maybe I will give fucking kids a go". Campaign to increase the penalties for failing to mandatory report suspected abuse if you want to make a difference. it might make the kind of tv execs who turned a blind eye to saville, think twice in the future.
