This can only improve it.

Where were John Tandy and Daniel Kawczynski last night?. I think we should be told.

The irony of this of course is that taxpayer money is being spent even more cleaning this up, I hope it wasn't a protest about the money spent on it haha

Probably thanks to the councillor who was trying to make waves in the media regarding this sculpture.

What about the money spent on the Darwin themed traffic island at Frankwell.

All the tree ferns have gone and it looks a scrubby mess today with a feeble bird topiary sticking out.

The budget for the Towns in Bloom competitions used to be phenomenal.

There are so many other area of waste that can be attributed to SABC councillors it just seems a shame most of them are still with us on Shropshire Council to carry it on.

I think I might just report Shropshire Council to the Environment Agency for what looks like in the picture, polluting the River Severn!

Mindless clowns. Just how does this help anyone?

I hope that the paint used is not toxic, as they seem to be making no effort in stopping it run into the river!!!!

Well I like this sculpture.

It is so sad that Colin D's views are taxpayers money.

What a place we live in. Is moaning just ingrained in Shropshire culture? Taxpayers money don't you think? We have no discernable major problems but we're sticking it to our public art. Both barrels. How lucky we are.

Does anybody ever stop, taxpayers money, and listen to themselves?

Taxpayers Money.

might look good painted floresent colour it might stand out better at night lol everyone can see the eyesore properly then lol.

Waste of good paint chucking it over that thing !.

[Mindless clowns]

I think you mean clown if you are referring to the councillor making mischief Tyrone Shoelaces!

I gather that the council having already wasted £125,000 in legal fees trying to sue the builders are now wasting even more of OUR MONEY going to appeal.

If you are going to put an extremely heavy sculpture that close to a river then you will have problems of unstable ground.

The same happened with the theatre so our 1200 seats we should have had were reduced by half and loads of money went on supporting and underpinning the building instead.

This sort of behaviour wouldn't have happened in Telford

in an australian dialect

"ken u tell what it is yet"

great more cost for this thing

the muppets who vandalised it are even worse that the councillors who wasted all that money in the first place

Who says they are vandels???

Surely they are artists simply adding more art to the structure

Perhaps others should be encouraged to add their own bit of art on the art and make it more of a community 'thing'

So if you owned a Henry Moore or a Barbara Hepworth you would embellish it?

Or you bought an expensive carpet you would chuck a bottle of red wine over it?

Muppet!

absolutely darlings nail on the head its all just art .Provoking isn't it......

agree with their sentiment but this is daft

be angry at the waste of taxpayers money dont cost us all even more in cleaning bills

Ohhhhh Boy!!!
