Thick as Thieves

Arguably everything but food, welfare and health is a public waste of money. Not sure where one draws the line.

Barges that can't go under canal bridges towed by a pony horse would be a good starting point.

It's a piece of static artwork. Scrap this along with all the museum exhibits and save public monies then ?

In short, not to necessarily scrap, but be more careful in these times where / when the public money goes.

I'm like the next the man, I love looking at art, cultural pride, unique items, being educated from an engineering and an aesthetic sense. I certainly don't agree with smashing things to make a so called "political point" to increase insurance premiums and my own tax bill. Don't agree either with overly pomp and circumstance. Just feel the limited money can be wisely spent more humbly and satisfactorily today, and should have been since some time ago.

It's no dig to underline.

Kind of fed-up that a lot is geared to instant entertainment gratification, more practically instant waste of a disposable item already known at the moment of conception, and little thought about actual usefulness and longevity to serve. It's rant from my behalf.

If I can permit myself to get back onto bikes, surely we both recognise that a simple bike with very little cost is no burden to a state?
