Comment on Why are a lot of statues vandalised with traffic cones in Scotland?

It started with the Duke of Wellington in Glasgow afaik. And the council would send someone up to take it off. And so a local would stick it back up. And so on. So mostly just a laugh, I don’t think anyone really had much to say about Wellington in the 20th Century. And it just kinda spread. Glasgow City Council don’t bother removing it these days, too much faff
