Lord knows I'm no art critic, but I think I can understand some of the brewing controversy over
this one.A statue of a naked, pregnant woman with no arms has been unveiled on Trafalgar Square's fourth plinth.
The 12ft (3.6m) marble sculpture, "Alison Lapper Pregnant", is already dividing opinion among art critics and disability campaigners.
Maybe it's just me and my delicate puritanical sensibilities, but I don't think I'd like to drive by
this every day on my way to work to see a 15 foot tall
deformed pregnant woman.
