Our great political statues debate has drawn to a close and thanks to everyone who joined in.
Well, thanks to NEARLY everyone. We exclude LW's great guide Simon from the backslapping as his nominations included a politician once embroiled in an attempted murder case along with a political figure so vilified that the mere writing of his name would bring down the fall of this blog, if not the government itself.

Oh God, we HOPE that's what he was doing…
Anyhoo…
LW's David has a better idea:
