town by Grantham Museum, SKDC and the Public Memorials Appeal.
It was originally destined for display in London but it will now be
on a 10ft plinth on St Peter’s Hill green.]

What will that achieve? A brief moment of self satisfaction and a fine. Bad life choice.

Well how childish,how old are these people ? Christ give the eggs to the foxes as Jax said,or give them to foodbanks for people to get some use out of, strange mindset some people have.

Sorry, I don't see the need for statues to personally glorify any individuals.
Shove them inside buildings relevant to the person or shove them in museums.

I honestly don't think even as a child I've ever been taken to see or since gone to see a statue.

So them shoved in your faces in public places, especially if divisive characters, I see no reason for whatsoever.

Sounds like the only thing that bunch can throw is a sissy fit!

If it were a conceptional piece it would depict a deformed she wolf emerging from a swirling mass of dead miners.
That would be a true representation.
