Rejected petition Put a stop to the £300,000 Margaret Thatcher statue in Grantham!!
£300,000 to be spent on a 6.4m tall Maggy Thatcher statue to go in the center of Grantham town.. Need I say anymore.
There have been 17 letters of objection against these plans yet it is still to go ahead. This is YOUR chance to put a stop to something a small fraction of people want.
More details
“A controversial £300,000 Margaret Thatcher statue is set to be approved despite concerns it will be a “likely target for politically-motivated vandals”.”
“The application, by Grantham Community Heritage Association (GCHA), which runs the Grantham Museum, has received 17 letters of objection to the proposals, mainly noting Mrs Thatcher’s position as a “divisive figure” and the potential of crime and disorder.”
