Black Bitch campaigners are staging a third rally this weekend, saying they have “no intention of giving up the fight”.
The pub’s owners, Greene King, announced last week their intention to change the name to the Willow Tree.
The campaign’s action committee said they had met last night and agreed on a number of measures which will be deployed in stages depending on Greene King’s attitude to their “reasonable request” for them to drop their “continuing insults” that the town’s mascot is racist and offensive.
