LONDON STATUES - ENGLISH MONARCHS

Image
STATUES IN LONDON OF ENGLISH MONARCHS      By royal appointment, I hereby present my photos of London's public statues of Kings and Queens - together with some of their quirks and quotes.       I have fully listed all English  (latterly British) Kings and Queens  since the Norman Conquest , including those not deemed worthy of a statue. I've also included some earlier monarchs who do have statues . Unless otherwise stated, the statues are all in public places or places with free admission.      I have to confess that AI has been shamefully plundered  for my pen pictures ; but then many of our royals were shameful plunderers. I also used ChatGPT to sub the whole magnum opus. I have to say they are less condescending than my regular sub (ex-BBC World Service) who has never once said "it's been my pleasure to sub your work".     As usual, t he accompanying portraits are courtesy of  The National Portrait Galle...

SPORTS STATUES IN LONDON

Sports Statues in London Wembley Stadium       This montage of  Rugby League greats from different teams and eras features (left to right)   Martin Offiah,  Eric Ashton,  Gus Risman,  Billy Boston and Alex Murphy.         Since 1929 the Rugby League Challenge Cup final has been held at Wembley  despite the fact the game isn't taken seriously anywhere  south of Widnes  (apart from  Australia and Perpignan). It's not for southern softies. And 90,000 northerners invading the capital is a tad  unnerving for L ondoners. See  The Mash Report.        I don't think I can add anything to the plaque honouring the only  Englishman to captain World Cup winners.     There are two more statues of Bobby Moore in London .....          East Ham                                ...

LONDON STATUES - BRITISH PRIME MINISTERS

Image
LONDON STATUES - BRITISH PRIME MINISTERS         There have been fifty-eight British Prime Ministers and it is the nature of the beast that few of them leave office with enhanced reputations. So it is hardly surprising that not many have been honoured with public statues.  Wellington and Churchill are the obvious exceptions. But they  are remembered more for their leadership in times of conflict rather than political innovation. In fact both, from  aristocratic families, had little interest in reforms to benefit the hoi polloi.        So below, with a couple of exceptions, are all the public statues of British Prime Ministers I could find in locations freely accessible in London. Others exist in places where there is an admission charge, notably the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey.        Given my knowledge of British history is sketchy - not part of my 1960s O level syllabus - I got a bit carried away...
