Man Hammers Away at Statue by Pedophile







After four hours, police brought the man down in a cherry picker, reports the Daily Mail. Another man nearby who had been livestreaming and discussing pedophiles was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit criminal damage.

In 2007, the BBC looked at Gill's legacy, calling him "one of the most respected artists of the 20th Century and noting that "the outrage has not significantly undermined his status." Gill works still on public display include the Stations of the Cross sculpture at Westminster Cathedral, though Margaret Kennedy, a campaigner for abuse survivors, urged the church to take them down in 1998. "Survivors couldn't pray at the Stations of the Cross. They were done by a pedophile," she said. "The very hands that carved the stations were the hands that abused."
