Why on earth would anybody outside Scotland be learning about Scottish politicians from the 1700s?

How many people actually know that Dundas was a real person? It is a street and a square for most people.

Rename it Woke Bullivard.

FOX News maybe. CNN would say he is just misunderstood this time.
