Some of the tweet replies are great. My favourite: ‘This statue of George Best...any chance you can make it look like he was a zombie in Spandau Ballet?’

I was listening to the radio about the mockery of this latest tribute, and a lady from the Sculpture society rang in quite incandescent, saying bad sculpting has become an epidemic as art schools no longer teach the art of sculpting, so people just pick it up without any formal training and think they can do it, and what we are ending up with is a load of awful sculptures all over the country.

Is this something to worry about, akin to the decreasing bee population?
