Not really surprising it it. You could probably set up a good little business as an egg stall next to it… maybe sell bags of things like fruit and veg that’s past it’s use by date as well… maybe some dog ****…
i hate the whole concept of statues, i don't care who the subject is

Dito to both those comments Kate , ithink its one one the most vile statues i've ever seen ~ and there are ugly ones out there.
The rope around her neck added to the beauty though.

They should take this as a sign ,that it was a ugly awful statue and just BIN it . What a waste of money , just think what they could have done instead.
A lot of appreciation for vandalism on here.
Shall we all be vandals now? What's the official line the Church is taking? because the farm takes up most of my day and at night I just like a cup of tea. I might not be able to devote myself full time to the old vandalism.

Her dad was a green grocer , she came from a working class family, strong intelligent fearless
Showed the world that a woman was a match for any man in the world of politics and opened the door for women who would come after her in any position
A great woman in my eyes

Wasting £300k on a vanity statue in a crumbling town centre, in the midst of a cost of living crisis is a true representation of Thatcherism.

Yes
More Americans are going to get photos
and spend pounds in that area.
The working class had a much better standard of living at the end of Thatchers reign than they had before her reign.

The young today have no idea how much harder life was before Thatcher. Not a bloody clue. They are fed a line and they repeat it like bleating sheep without actually questioning anything. If these snowflakes had experienced life in those pre - Thatcher days whatever would have become of them? :hee:
