Looks like it's going to be...
a toss-up between the big blue cock and the massive organ.
I'm sending you
An up arrow and the Finbar Saunders Lifetime Achievement Memorial Knob.
Fine work, Massive Member.
Bastard.
You beat me to it.
You gotta be swift to beat the man from Cadiz..
Hm. They all seem a bit gimmicky to me
Whilst I'm not against something new and symbolic of our era, surely it needs to be in keeping with the overall vibe of the square?
Utter toss
I saw the giant ship in a bottle last Saturday from a taxi window and thought it looked great - a surreal, imaginative object that made me smile. Compared to that this lot looks like utter toss.
Thatcher's Head.
On a stick would look rather fetching.
Thatcher's Head.............
..........could extend the idea into something similar to the Anthony Gormley thing and have Thatchers Head on a Stick followed by Lawson, followed by Tebbit, followed by Joseph etc. etc. until we arrive at a Coalition Head on a Stick
Agree with gimmicky
The big blue cock's legs are all wrong too. The least bad one for me was the kid on the rocking horse. The others just seemed to fail on various levels.
Perhaps
David Cameron could cut their funding (I'm assuming our taxes are subsidising these 'artists')?
