Can anyone explain to me why, in a run down shopping centre, in a run down town, in a deprived area with ever increasing levels of poverty and homelessness, our Council have decided to spend more than £80,000 on this.
Have I missed something? I'm fairly open minded when it comes to art but I just cant see this as a anything other than a poorly conceived and badly executed lump of fibreglass wankerage and muppetry........ Does anybody actually think this is a wonderful creation or that it enhances the town square in any way.
A bit like working for years in the NHS. No money for essentials but always a pocket of money for non patient related schemes. I was told years ago that once money was assigned to one budget it couldn’t be moved!! Beggars belief.
