Thanks so much for actually READING the thread, quite a rare thing it seems :-)
I am sincerely curious about any debate, or lack thereof regarding the subject matter in this case. I hadn't seen any articles about this previously, although I must confess that I try to spread my newsreading focus over the whole world and so I may well have missed it.
I suppose that such a blight upon once-noble Trafalgar Square and such an insult against Lord Nelson is to be expected from a city that elects the likes of Red Ken Livingstone, but I'm just wondering if there was any particular debate about Mandela as the subject or whether it was pretty much a matter of 'royal' fiat from the Mayor's office.
My hope is that some of our British Friends who are familiar with this matter might chime in, although all posts are of course entirely welcome :-)
Glad I saw Lord Nelson and Trafalgar before the Marxist interloper Nelson made his way there.
We both know that there are many thinking Brits. The problem is that they are drowned out by the rabble.
Eventually, we WILL win, but at tragic and huge cost caused BY the rabble, who will continually try to blame US for their folly.
Kosovo was the beginning of the end for these dimwits. Katrina has accelerated their demise. RIta should prove their foolishness.
Then again, I do suffer from excessive positivism, tempered with a pleasant outlook on life. It's what keeps me from killing everything and everyone around me............
