Don't waste money on statues, invest in people:
"Brian Collins (Letters, April 13) asks where are the statues of Elizabeth II to commemorate her diamond jubilee, noting the prominent placing of statues of Queen Victoria and more recent monarchs in this city. The statue of a very glum Victoria, outside the High Court building, with its sceptre outstretched towards her subjects, always reminds me of Circe casting a spell; while the seated bronze version outside the QVB was a throwaway relic from Ireland, shunted off to the colonies, where it remained in a Sydney warehouse for many years."
