History is sometimes distorted because it is often written by the conflict winner, it may be twisted due to the frailty of human memory or simply the effect of later developments in the passage of time.
It must never been affected by people who don't want to face up to facts, it has to be factual or surely it is not History.
English Heritage surely has a duty of care not sanitize or otherwise distort our heritage it isn't Disney World or a theme park, it may involve facing up to unpleasant facts but truth not propaganda ought to be the watch-word. Root out these truth vandals.
