A date is set for the next statue for the Forth Plinth - a representation of “every women”.

    Well, not “every woman” but a bit more London-focused, just quoting what the article says about this:

    Lady in Blue by New York-based artist Tschabalala Self is a bronze and blue homage to a young woman which she says “reflects many of today’s Londoners”.

    Describing the statue, she said: “She is not an idol to venerate or a historic figurehead to commemorate. She is a woman striding forward into our collective future with ambition and purpose. She is a Londoner who represents the city’s spirit.”

    Don’t mean to be rude, you probably didn’t mean to equate the statue to absolutely every woman.
