A man has been pictured selling eggs for £10 directly outside a new statue to Margaret Thatcher that has been unveiled in her home town of Grantham. The new memorial to the first female Prime Minister was hit by egg within hours of its opening at the weekend.
. The £300k statue, first approved in February 2019, stands at St Peter's Hill, in the centre of Baroness Thatcher's home town and has proved divisive in the town.
Twitter user @sport_badger, or Em, shared a picture online of reporter Oli Dugmore, head of news and politics for publication JOE, selling eggs for £10 a piece directly next to the statue. This comes following videos of it appearing to be egged by arts centre woker Jeremy Webster just hours after it was unveiled.
