I think its a fundamental change and a very important decision. Trustees say its time to end the Toxic Association with slavery. If ive got members of staff who are uncomfortable coming in the building, if there are people, bristolians, and people from further afield who feel that this place isnt for them because of perceived associations, then thats something i cant be doing with. Like other ports around the uk, this city is still struggling to come to terms with the role that it played in the brutality of the slave trade. A period which brought wealth and influence, but which also caused lasting shame. So for some, todays announcement was a pointless attempt to air brush history. For others, its a moral victory. Id look at that and think a disgusting man. He could have been involved in the transportation of my ancestors to a life of hardship. I think its far too pc. I think its ludicrous. I mean, its at colston hall for donkeys years. Thats the brand and thats what we should stick with. Now ive got to know much more. Bristols biggest music act, massive attack, have boycotted the venue for 15 years because of the colston name. I think its really embarrassing for bristol, yeah. Daddy g from the band welcomed todays news, but he hopes its a genuine decision and notjust an excuse to rebrand the hall with a corporate sponsor. I think the name should go out to committee and give the chance for bristolians to probably rename it. You know, personally, id like it to be named after somebody who was quite instrumental in the abolition of slavery. The hall will get its new name in three years time after a major refurbishment, but some wonder where this will stop. What about other venues, schools and roads in this city and beyond which are also linked with the slave trade . Jon kay, bbc news, bristol. Newsnights about to begin over on bbc two in a few moments. Heres evan davis. Weve heard a lot about labour and the conservatives in this election campaign. Tonight, well be out and about with ukip. In Single Digits in the polls. Is there life in the party hello and welcome to sportsday with me will perry. The headlines tonight tottenham stay in the premier League Title Race with a 1 0 win at Crystal Palace. Arsenal left it late against leciester to keep their hopes of a Champions League place alive. And there was a winning return to tennis for Maria Sharapova at the Stuttgart Open after serving a 15 month doping ban. Tottenham have done what they needed to do tonight and beaten Crystal Palace to reduce chelseas lead at the top of the Premier League to 4 points once again, but it wasnt straightforward for mauricio potchettinos side, 1 0 it finished at Selhurst Park as alex gulrajani reportss. Time to move on for tottenham, they couldnt keep pace chelsea in the fa cup, could they do it in the league . Any hope of that happening started a Selhurst Park Crystal Palace were farfrom Selhurst Park Crystal Palace were far from welcoming hosts as totte n ha m far from welcoming hosts as tottenham toiled in front of goal. Pochettino needed to change things up, on pochettino needed to change things up, on came pochettino needed to change things up, on came son and sissoko but there was an unfortunate injury which made the presence felt. Dele alli has made a Habit Scoring recently, not tonight. With their slim chances of catching chelsea slipping away, the moment they needed, finally spurs found a way through. Christian eriksen delivering when no one expected it, not least Wayne Hennessey in the palace goal. The dream continues for 110w. Palace goal. The dream continues for now. In the second half we completely dominated the game, i think they didnt shoot and it was fantastic, very pleased and congratulating began the players and think three points that we got, we are reducing the gap with chelsea and always believe, fighting ahead. Arsenals hopes of reaching the Champions League are still alive but onlyjust after a late own goal from robert huth gave them a 1 0 win over leicester at the emirates. Leicesters defence had repelled arsenals best efforts until huth unwittingly deflected a wayward shot from Nacho Monreal past kasper schmeichel. We knew before the game with what happened on sunday afternoon and extra time that we didnt have much time to recover. But overall we were focused, serious and in the end we played against a team that was very difficult to get out of position to destabilise and we got the win we wanted. So there are four points between chelsea and spurs. Chelsea face everton on sunday while its the north london derby, also on what could be a pivotal sunday. Arsenal are now four points off a Champions League place while Manchester City face neighbours united tomorrow evening. Sunderland are on the brink of relegation from the Premier League after they lost 1 0 at second bottom middlesbrough. Marten de roon got the only goal of the game in the eighth minute to give boro their First League Win of 2017 and boost their slim hopes of avoiding the drop, theyre now 6 points from safety with sunderland, 6 points further back and with a game in hand. While there is a chance to keep going, while there are games to win, good performances normally lead to results and i think we have had a good few performances in the last few games. I hope we get points as well and obviously we have to try to pick up everyone, it is a swim, bournemouth becomes a must win. The players are all happy, they are all pleased with the effort and the determination and the spirit to collect the three points and win a north east derby. All we do now is we remain focused for the game on sunday against Manchester City and they will gain confidence and belief going into the game.
