Does Greenpeace climbing Nelson's Column inspire admiration or anger?

Nelson's Column is a monument in Trafalgar Square in central London built to commemorate Admiral Horatio Nelson, who died at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The monument was constructed between 1840 and 1843 to a design by William Railton at a cost of £47,000. It is a column of the Corinthian order[1] built from Dartmoor granite. The Craigleith sandstone statue of Nelson is by E. H. Baily and the four bronze lions on the base, added in 1867, were designed by Sir Edwin Landseer

Lock them up, and throw away the key. I would like to know the tax arrangements for that organisation. It is an international company, not a charity (though it sometimes breaks UK charity laws by allowing its street collectors to give that impression). It runs ships. That is an incredibly expensive thing to do, and we certainly have the right to know where this political pressure group is funded from (it has links with German politicians), and where it pays its taxes.

I remember watching John Noakes climb Nelsons column back in 1977. He was up there to help scrub off some of the pigeon muck. To be honest, cleaning up the air is far more important than cleaning up the pigeon poo.

INSPIRE ADMIRATION.

they know what they are doing because i was turned down when i said i would climb up due to not having climbing experience.

And can they give him a clean while up there?

Silly plonkers nobody takes any notice of them. Pity they didn't get proper jobs and stopped wasting tax payer's money.

mild indifference to be honest I'm only laughing at the people getting their knickers in a twist.

Neither, nor would l have SHRED of sympathy of one of em had an accident.

How were the police able to tell if the climbers were terrorists intending to destroy the statue - why allow ?

i hope the s illy sods fall off
