Oliver Cromwellin patsas (Westminster)

Oliver Cromwellin patsas.

Oliver Cromwellin patsas Westminsterissä pystytettiin Englannin, Skotlannin ja Irlannin lordiprotektorin Oliver Cromwellin kunniaksi Westminster Hallin viereiselle nurmikolle vuonna 1899, jolloin Cromwellin syntymästä oli kulunut 300 vuotta. Patsaan teki kuvanveistäjä Hamo Thornycroft, ja se rahoitettiin yksityisellä rahoituksella. Lahjoituksen teki ehkä entinen pääministeri Archibald Primrose.[1]

Patsaan oikeassa kädessä on miekka ja vasemmassa Raamattu, jonka kannessa on vuosiluku 1641. Patsaan edustalla on leijonaa esittävä veistos.

Patsashanketta vastustivat 1890-luvulla useat alahuoneen konservatiiviedustajat sekä kaikki Irlantilaisen puolueen edustajat, mutta Liberaalipuolueen johtama hallitus sai hankkeen läpi muutettuaan sen yksityisesti rahoitettavaksi.[1]

Vuonna 2004 Työväenpuolueen edustaja Stephen Pound ehdotti patsaan siirtämistä sulattamoon. Ehdotusta kannatti yksi konservatiivi- ja yksi liberaaliedustaja. Pound nimitti Cromwellia Droghedan teurastajaksi, mutta hänen ehdotuksensa vastustajat käyttivät nimitystä ”Jumalan englantilainen” ja mainitsivat Cromwellin puolustaneen parlamentin asemaa absoluuttisen monarkian tyranniaa vastaan.[2] Patsas sai jäädä paikoilleen.

The overwhelming majority do so in a nonviolent manner. The following list of anti-war organizations highlights past and present anti...
