Did that saying about 'denying history' come from England? Well, they sure are re-writing it...

 
British wartime leader Winston Churchill is set to be removed from the UK £5 banknote and replaced with wildlife imagery. Nadeem Perera, a member of the Bank of England’s wildlife advisory panel, called the move “overdue,” saying Britain’s wildlife is deeply connected to the nation’s culture.
 

Current banknotes feature major historical figures including Winston Churchill, Jane Austen, J.M.W. Turner, and Alan Turing. The Bank of England will now ask the public to help choose which animals appear on the redesigned notes.
If it wasn't for the trees, they'd all be speaking German.
