A new row has erupted about the spare plinth in Trafalgar Sq, Ken Livingston suggesting amongst others a burnt-out car and little meerkats made in the name of Tracey Emin.
Boris Johnson should enter this fray and he would be best advised to support a statue of Edward Jenner, the discoverer of the smallpox vaccine and saver of literally millions of lives. Interestingly there used to be a statue of Jenner in Trafalgar Sq but it was moved to Kensington Gardens. Boris should have it put back, at minimal expense.
