cressida Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I think Annie said it would be wrong to put the late Queen's statue there because of pigeons making a mess, I'm inclined to agree with her now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! Put a Statue of Boris there instead and let him get sh-- on just like he did it on people during his short stay in No10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Trafalgar square is such a great place for a statue of a monarch, why isn't there one for George VI or Edward VIII or George V or Edward VII or Victoria or William IV? You have to go back to 1843 and George IV for a statue of a monarch in Trafalgar Square and his statue is only there because they cut back on the original design of Marble Arch (it's intended home) and had to find somewhere else to put it.

Would have thought we've more to worry about anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George IV - well he deserved the pigeons for company. (profligate) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longcol Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Any statue in Trafalgar Square is going to look pretty insignificant compared to Nelson's Column. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
