An hour in Trafalgar Square for the Parthenon Marbles
I was unable to make it to the protest on the Fourth Plinth by Sofka Smales. From accounts I have heard though, it was well received and attracted quite a bit of interest at ground level (which you can’t necessarily see from the video feed because of the camera position).
You can watch the video of the whole of Sofka’s hour on the plinth here.
