Intriguing isn't it, that they managed to get the public to subscibe to the purchase of this statue instead of paying for it themselves !!!
True - but that is just how people with money do things = never use one's own cash, when others will do
Well I'm glad I didn't and would not pay for it - if they want another statue or some other memorabilia - let the bloody sods pay for it themselves !!!
I guess that's the same for any monement - I certainly am against funding certain Political statues (like the one of 'the Milk snatcher.) - which I should be funded by their respective Political Party. The erection of a statue of Royalty can come under a different category (as Head of State) - although, she and Charles divorced, and so, rather than Public, should I feel come under the umbrella of Private, /(in this case Spencer) family funding.
Although, - As an aside - Methinks - This should be refeferred to as a 'Lady Di' s - or 'Diana' statue. Legally, Camilla is Princess of Wales but adopted the feminine form of her husband's highest-ranking subsidiary title, Duke of Cornwall, only because the title Princess of Wales became strongly associated with the previous holder of that title, - Diana.
