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
I’m guessing it’s because they are both found on the way back from the pub.
Something to fill time while waiting for the kebab you ordered?
Vandalised? You can take them off!
I suspect this might be part of the reason why it is catching on. Its harder to prosecute someone for doing this than say spraypainting the statue, as the statue is in no way damaged by the act.
yeah how are the statues damaged?
Because who doesn’t want to make a random statue a witch?
That’s insulting to us witches
Well your no fun.
