A photo a day from the famous East Midlands city, its surroundings, and wherever the photographic journey takes me.

Busted!
I was sad to see that the monument of Jesse Boot had been vandalised overnight. It had stood in the same spot near the university for years and years without any problems. I understand from news reports that it was done by student activists, in reaction to raising university fees, government cuts and the like. Personally I think it's stupid to destroy such things, as it doesn't do any good. In fact it actually puts people off and makes them resent the protestors.

Too right my friend, 2 wrongs dont make a right.
ReplyDeleteI agree!
ReplyDeleteAhh the institutions of higher learning and the brainlessness that comes out of them. Hopefully they put the statue to rights soon and that it costs the students a bundle!
