- 'Woke' bosses of a building society have axed Robin Hood from their logo because they feel the hero outlaw does not reflect the firm’s “financial diversity.”
The company stated on Twitter: "We’re excited to introduce our new brand look, reflecting our commitment to inclusivity, progress and community. For 175+ years, we’ve supported unique financial journeys and now we’re evolving to better meet your needs. Welcome to a different kind of society."
Isabel says: “He lived in the flipping 12th century. A lot of other bad stuff was happening then!”

Close your account with them. Tell them woke BS is unacceptable.
This is the way to do it.
The way us normal people can have a voice and push back against all this rubbish, is to not give our custom to these businesses.
If you’ve got a few quid in this building society, take it out. Close your account.
It’ll take a few minutes and you’ll feel better!
Need to tell them why you are closing it
Shouldn’t you be happy they removed a socialist hero?
@@DeneMonkey funny really as he would definitely fight against socialist regimes. He robs the corrupt and there's never been a socialist regime that wasn't corrupt 😂
The BS in Nottingham BS stands for Bull Sh1t.
Speaking as a Loxely (slightly different spelling after 800 years), whose family came from the same area as Robin Hood, I do not appreciate the cancelling of my (possible) ancestor.
These people try to strip anything british history, lore, etc in the name of bloody inclusivity. My question is why a British 'lore" character is not inclusive for British culture???
I am an immigrant and I am pissed off with these bullshittery stripping British people off their culture, history.
You Mustn't Say Robin Hood, It Frightened Little Weak Starmer And His Forty Thieves Payed By AlliBaba.
Take out your savings from the Nottingham BS and put into the Coventry BS they have Lady Godiva as their LOGO
But for how long I wonder !
Who
Who would have thought a foreign council women would remove British history hmm 🤔 who see that coming a mile away 🤦♂️
Who's diversity? ... theirs or mine?
They probably don’t want a socialist hero
What is wrong with this bloody country
Wokism, the lab gov, top cops, civil service, 2T policing, 2T judiciary.
It's 2024 people - it's time to replace "Robin Hood" by "Robiniqua from da Hood"!
Now that’s brilliant! Well done
Sherrif of Nottingham...aka Starmer.
Wouldn’t that be the Tories?
😂😂😂
The best thing about it I bet not one person complained about Robin Hood being part of the logo, I mean, why would they, utter madness
Isabel when she says muppets makes me laugh every time 😂
The "DarkAges". I thought that was today under this Liebour Government....!
Robin Hood was a marginalised Saxon…
Oppressed by Norman colonisers.
Like us then!
The establishment never ceases to amaze me with its crass stupidity.
I wouldn't let this Mrs Convoluted judge Crufts let alone civil or judicial matters.😡
This wokism is among the greatest dangers that we face today.
Taking it out is not enough as you could transfer it out
To have the most impact take it out in person at a branch in cash...this will be chaotic for them and cause more work and issues than they will ever want to deal with!
This is what woke looks like in branding terms.
I don't need my culture to be inclusive. It's my culture. More than happy for those not from my homeland to go live elsewhere.
A tragedy to see them abandon their history in favour of the ‘modern world’. The latter we always complain is getting worse and worse.
At least they are not claiming he was black or transgender!
Don't give tv producers ideas!!
"The UK"......a soap opera.
It doesn't have to be. The people can decide.
I think you mean a "joke" opera....🤦
Wouldnt "Financial Diversity" include taking from the rich and giving to the poor?
There are other establishments called after their locality, royal London royal liver etc etc, im not bothered what it’s called….. has anyone noticed that “uncle bens rice” (and other products) is now called just bens?, and the small TM icon of the elderly black gentleman has been removed, aww very sad, 😂, this planet is a fcukd up place to be honest.. finally I have been shaving my head for 25 years and couldn’t give a shite being called bald, I have good fun with it when called that by someone with a “Bobby charlton” 😬… it’s all total baldocks, imo
They are replacing it with 12 men in a dingy, from the 12th to the 21st century much more modern.
Migrants by the Dozen - a great film to be.
Unbelievable!!!
Well this is stupid, Robin Hood was not even a real person.
Don't forget the Men in Tights
Yes, Robin Hood was non-binary. Can't get more 'inclusive' than that.
Robin Hood was very inclusive. He had many different people from all walks of life in his Merry Band, even including a Friar (Friar Tuck) , a really tall guy (little John) , a Minstrel (Alan a Dale) . William Scarlock or Scathelock, (the Will Scarlet). I think this company should stick to Banking.
Dont forget Morgan Freeman aswell..
Not WOKE
INVADER
We are living in a very dark age. The 21at century so far is a bad time.
We are not to say Dark ages or Medieval Age either
We are entering a new Dark Ages.
Robin Hood would be ashamed of what Nottingham has become. It has become a shyte hole
It certainly has. It used to be a lovely city and known as The Queen of the Midlands.
To be fair, he did have a band of merry men😂
ffs, surprised they just haven’t made the motif in LGBTIF colours!
He wasn't from Nottingham. The Sheriff was from Nottingham. Robin Hood was from Yorkshire but it didn't stop Nottingham appropriating the story. Very good for tourism but a bit like Berlin claiming General Patton.
You are talking complete tosh! I've spent many o' nights dancing with fair maidens around the Great Oak Tree under the moonlight, and I can confirm Robin Hood was not from Yorkshire! He was from..... I can't possibly give that away!

Too risky to leave your money in their Building Society as they have demonstrate the idiocy of their staff. Don't trust them with your cash...
The legal definition of redundancy applies to these managers: 'The requirement for employees to carry out work of a particular kind, has ceased or diminished, or is expected to cease or diminish'.
Since they're not using the logo , it should be ok for me to steal it for myself then
Can i still call a spade a spade? or is it racist?
Don’t forget they spent lots of your money on this rebrand
If they wanted to get with the times why didn't they just change Robin from green to black....simple
Would have thought a Green man was a minority. The only other ones are the brother and sister from woolpit.
Good one. Thanks for the giggle
It’s because Robin Hood didn’t have a zombie knife and ride round on a scooter 😂
Some of my favourite old actors Alec Guinness, Mariyln Monroe, Humprey Bogart, Orson Welles
If people went through thier work today it would get cancelled for the most ridiculous reason
Friar Tuck will be hoping mad, and as for Maid Marion, she`s absolutely livid.
Will is Scarlet with rage
@@bobarty I dare say the sheriff of Nottingham is behind this, the scoundrel.
I worked for the Nottingham Building Society around 50years ago and they were sensible then and yes the N was normal then, Isabel remember there is Skipton BS and Leicester just to name 2.
Close your account with them.
That weird 'N' in Nottingham BS new logo looks like one of those 'inclusivity' ribbons. I wonder how much they paid some woke 12-year olds in a marketing company for that redesign. 🤣
For some weird reason, I just thought snot when I saw it.
Take your savings out, because the spent money on the most heavy handed amateur identity, with the typographic skill of a four- year old, and the background colour borrowed from a backstreet taxi company.
Change your BS NOW!
We are in the Dark Ages again
Robin Hood was a Yorkshire man from barnsdale. That's something you can tell your kids...
True
News flash , Robin Hood never existed ! He is an amalgam of folklore and local legend .
So says Mr Archer 😂😂
They can’t cancel “Little Johns “ grave though pathetic bullying individuals
A man in tights?
Ahead of his time! 😅
This needs to stop
We should all dress like Robin hood ,until normality is restored 😂
I'm sure this has nothing to do with destroying English culture and national identity
I'm sure it has and its bloody wrong.
No words!
If you go to their website you can let them know about their new look. They seem very proud about it.
Surely Robin was happy with his merry men? 🎉
If I still had my account with them I would now be closing it. This tripe is ridiculous! And, for some weird reason, the N made me think snot.
The start of the n looks like the Black Lives Matter ribbon just an observation.
The sheriff of Nottingham bank
A sad day for us Nottingham folk
Largely based on a mostly fictional character who allegedly lived in the 1100's first appearance in literature in the 1300's and embellished ever since.
You could put Mario on there because once upon a time there was an Italian plumber.
I get why people might be upset but it's hardly as serious as everyone is making it out to be
Shrewd move by the bosses getting a load of free advertising.
"There are records of lawbreakers in the Middle Ages with the same name.
Historians delving deeper into the Middle Ages have uncovered more than one man called Robin Hood, concluding that Robin Hood was instead an alias, used by different outlaws over an extended period of more than 100 years." So, as a financial institution do you want to be associated with criminals?
Won't be surprised if they make Saladin their mascot.
Not very diverse and inclusive if you exclude White British History from the books....
The old logo did look a bit dated. But they could have just put an arrowhead on the capital letter "N" for example. No need to ditch Robin Hood, their USP, entirely. Amateurs! I do wonder if the diversity aspect to this is simply retrofitting "THE MESSAGE" onto a corporate redesign they were doing anyway. And they thought they would signal their virtue by saying it was for this reason.
Robin Hood, wearing a forrester's hat.
TSB, Trust in the pink horse. soon to come.
Urgh their new logo looks so ugly… as someone from Notts this is ridiculous… I dunno how many times they can use green on their logo and still not find a decent green though, both of them are ugly greens
Can people who have cancer and having Kemo sue the Dr for making there hair fall out and being bald
No words, no words😳😳😳😳😳
Boycott the business
I’ve been bald for over thirty years and my nickname was Baldy 1 as I was older than the other bald chap. Can I sue GMP retrospectively?
Robin Hood lived in a forest! He gave to the poor, which seems inclusive to me, when he and his men could have kept all of the dosh for themselves?
Robin Hood was a local hero of mine! Nottingham BS really is a load of BS now.
That new logo is almost Comic Sans. How much did that cost? I might have done it cheaper with a box of crayons.
I'm sure Robin Hood wants nothing to do with today's woke nottingham so it's a win for him.
The only way we can have Robin Hood back is for someone to discover that he was black.
Nottingham council's muslim chief has scrapped Bonfire night
Interesting, he had all sorts of people in his band of merry men.
'Piece of spaghetti' 😂😂😂
Not the dark ages but the Middle Ages .
As a baldy who started losing their hair at 18 - 56 years ago all I can say is of the two words in that insult I'd take more offence at tge second assuming it started with a "w"
Wig?
@@loafersheffield definitely if it was that.😂
Robin Hood did not come from Nottinghamshire. There is evidence that he came from Wakefield and did his outlawing in Barnesdale Forest. In fact there are more references to Robin Hood in Yorkshire, than there are in Nottinghamshire. Still a stupid decision by this building society though.
I hope everyone who has an account with this bunch of idiots withdraw all monies immediately.
Eh ? Starmer is Robin Hood. This should be highly applicable now as all the millionaires leave the country.
What about “Robin Hood Men in Tights”?
Little John is suing cos of his hurtful nickname😂
Well, according to the story, before he became 'Robin Hood', he was off fighting the Moors, so ...... can't have THAT. sigh Oh, and the 'spaghetti'-looking new 'N'? Certain 'communities' don't allow art. Huh.
Robin Hood was from near Doncaster, I believe
Everyone knows Robin Hood was a lesbian of African descent? Don’t they? So the Building Society is absolutely justified in scrapping this horribly exclusive logo.
What next Nottingham Forrest change their name because Robin Hood lived in the forest?
That looks like a ribbon at the start of the word
Robin hood and his merry men in a forest today would mean Robin hood and his men dogging in this day and age
