My Mother (who is a teacher librarian) refuses to remove the Biggles comics from her library for tow reasons,
1. They won't give her money to replace the books with new ones.
2. It is used as an example of how people think then and now think of others.
Yes, the cartoons are ofensive by todays standards, but if we whitewash history, how will pople see how we have changed.
Now, can someone bring back Golloywog biscuts!
