However the far right is screaming WOKE and are demanding we stick to people like Enoch Powell.
But where do you stand? Should money stick to images of dead people or is it time to give fluffy animals a chance?


The idea that we shouldn’t respect and admire people who have done great things because they also did things that aren’t so great is just plain childish. Nobody is perfect. In fact, animals do terrible things too. There is an unbelievable amount of theft, r*pe and murder in the animal kingdom. You would not believe how much. Everyone seems to adore otters. They are literally gang thugs. They have been documented r*ping fish to death and then eating them. No joke. But they are cuddly! 😂😂😂
What then?
I defy anyone to suggest that there is anything on Earth that some whiny baby or another won’t find objectionable. And with the internet, there’s no whiny baby on Earth that can’t muster enough following to throw a monkey wrench into the works of any government that takes people’s feelings into account for every decision.
Why not just burn the whole government down and everyone can just decide for themselves what they want to call currency and how much it should be worth. That will be fun too! Ell oh ell! I’ve been watching “Fallout” and bottle caps seem to be the prevailing currency in that world. Of course, since people’s opinions seem to be so important, i suspect that there will never be consensus.
Anarchy it is! Might makes right! No need for currency at all! You can have anything you want as long as you can take it and secure it. Problem solved! No more offensive pics on your money. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Last I heard, Canada is a member of The Commonwealth, and has had animals on its currency for years. A beaver has been on the reverse side of a Canada 5-cent piece for decades.

Canada's paper currency has had Snowy Owl ($50 note), Common Loon ($20 note) and Osprey ($10 note).



Sounds like a great idea. Maybe Keir Starmer can outsource the printing of pound notes to Canada's Royal Mint in Ottawa, and save the British Royal Mint a lot of money. After all, the Canadians already know how to print notes with animals on them.
This sounds like something future-king William would consider.
A beaver is a good choice since it's an ecosystem foundation species. Squirrels and hedgehogs are not. I hope they consult zoologists and ecologists and keep the cute away. What's the national animal of britain? I'm sure there's some banknote with a kangaroo on it in Australia or that crazy mountain parrot that tears up cars in New Zealand., or their only land bird, the kiwi, which is endangered.
Putting endangered species ot representative national birds, like the US's bald eagle, on a bank note seems fine too.
Tricky one, England is the lion, Scotland the unicorn, Wales the dragon. I don't think the UK as a whole has a national animal
Oh yes! And I'm sure it would be really popular in Oregon!

I think they have to have a quota on how many dams that they have made are how many houses they have flooded out by changing the river but I think it would be better looking at them then a president that just screwed everything up hopefully they won't put Biden on a coin are on the bill Trump of course he had to make his own just to prove that he was the president at one time but yeah I think you have something going there I think that all countries should start thinking about that and to be honest with you in America we have because we stop putting presidents on new coins because we're tired of them tired of looking at them hearing them all their bullshit

No not a beaver you eat those but before you eat them you build a River Damn. After that, you take an Ax to their neck, cutting their heads off then skin them. You can either dump them in a boiling pot or put them on the barbecue grill your choice for dinner.. As far as putting a face on the dollar bill your currency or a $100 bill you are welcome to put my face on your currency in England
Pfft...
*in a low, menacing voice*
Do it.
If they erase Sir Winston Churchill from the £5 banknotes, they will have to deal with a flood of fake £5 banknotes decorated with Amelia instead - and the real fun begins when people start accepting those in everyday transactions, for the simple reason of spiting the government. Basically, the "British" (or rather "grooming gangs' ") government will not survive this mistake. So yeah, go ahead and do it. I shall make sure to invest in popcorn.
Well, I am not from the land of tea and crumpets, actually, I am from the land of flying Doritos, heart disease, and High fructose corn syrup.
BUT, I would say that if you have ran out of modern political figures to go for it, you could just use historical ones, you got plenty of those to slap on the currency.
how about a sloth?

Not native. Unlike the unicorn.

We'd probably elect one as prime minister
@purplepoppy it would be an improvememnt
We have a beaver on our nickel.
Does it really matters what's on bank notes? The main point being to make the different bank notes recognizable, personally I don't really give a damn whether it's some political figure or any other animal put on a bank note. Sure nevertheless that I'd prefer some of these days well known person and similar not to be on them notes... So, all in all, let's go for the beaver ;0)
That depends on the quality of the beaver!
A small ensemble would be nice. At the center, a soldier. To his left, an EMT, Nurse, Doctor. To the right a policeman, fireman, teacher.
These people make the UK function.
Some members of the royal family behave like animals. Yet they are represented on bank notes and coins.
Let the true animals get their place as well. Beavers, kitties, pussies, cocks, ponies... why not?
Why not? It's okay to put bank notes on a beaver, too. 😉
I would prefer fluffies instead of ugly Churchill or Henry VIII looks at me while opening my purse.
As a Canadian I approve of the wood pig on money or anything.
Damn right it is! We need more Beaver not less. Hell the Beaver is Canadas national animal...
Not in the slightest, it's better than a person who has got skeletons in the closet.
Strippers have been doing that for decades...
Is that the "remember the beavers" bank note? The limers killed them all off over there 400 years ago
Why not. Talkeetna in Alaska has a cat as a mayor!
Perhaps my cousin, the late Arthur R. "Beaver" Berry, should be on our 10-dollar bill !!!
My cat Alistair and I both vote for the animals.
Belarus beat them by 34 years
Sure, why not? It's a cute animal.
A Canadian bank note, certainly.
How about the other kind of beaver?
It looks funny
