What is worrying, is that protesters will try and stop or hold up the building of the statue and if it is finally built, they try and disrupt the opening. And may deface it with slogans or even damage it. Sorry if i am sounding cynical!
Very moving. You may be right, Morse. But then, they're relatively free to do so and if they had a brain cell between them they'd realise the reason why they were free to do so would be because of the men the memorial honours!
