I HAVE to say, let’s hope none of our current council leaders find themselves on the Greater London Authority any time soon.

Can you imagine them taking a look at the skyline after a few complaints about the Gherkin or the Shard, deciding to agree with the complainants, purchasing the building, then moving in with the bulldozers? Sounds ridiculous?

Well, it’s just happened here!

Yes, it was bonkers to build the Imax in the first place, but even more bonkers to pull it down. Ah well, back to the drawing board!
