Who is the apparently unpopular statue of Bill?


My ambition for a good while is to grow old disgracefully. So far my wife tells me that I am doing really well!

I note that you are in the UK, and so I'll assume you aren't up on the USA history. He was a general in the Confederacy in the US civil war.

Please read this link provided in my post above for synopsis of this controversial subject.

As Cpn Jack has said it was of Robert E Lee. General of the confederacy. We're having a little row over these things right now.

This is General JEB Stuart as few blocks east of Lee.

Oh?

There was I thinking that that particular war was over a fair while back?

The link I posted explains why those statues got a fresh coat of paint.
