Mayor of London announces multicultural shortlist of sculptures for landmark’s fourth plinth
Sadiq Khan has been accused of promoting “anti-British propaganda” with a multicultural shortlist of sculptures for Trafalgar Square’s fourth plinth.
The Mayor of London has resisted calls for a statue of Queen Elizabeth II to be erected in the space and instead launched a competition that will be decided by a public vote.
Offerings include a Bollywood-themed ice cream van, a golden bust of a woman’s head representing “a collective community portrait” and a black woman in a revealing blue dress.
