The Marble Arch mound

[Workingman]

Just bringing this back....

The cost has jumped from £3.3 million to £6 million and the lead councillor has resigned. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-58197626

The irony is that the hideous 'Mound' is itself obliterated by a huge wall of plastic railings to keep non-payers out - very environmentally friendly.

It was expected to attract 200,000 people at an average of £6.25 a go to walk up a flight of steps so was never going to pay for itself. It sides are so steep that it is a H&S hazard.

But never mind, it is not the committee's money; the council tax payers will fork out - as always.

It is and "ego mound"...
