Controversy has erupted in Cambridge over the decision by the left-wing Labour city council to remove a controversial statue of Prince Philip. The £150,000 13-ft sculpture, known as 'The Don,' was erected in 2014 to honor the late Duke of Edinburgh's 35-year tenure as Chancellor of Cambridge University. The council claims that nearby residents have called for the statue's removal, while those who support its presence criticize the move as 'leftie, woke censorship.' The statue lacks planning permission and has been described as 'possibly the poorest quality work' ever submitted to the council [faa5e9bc].
