Holocaust Memorial BillContribution
What about the impact of this conveyor-belt design? We see many things that are not to our taste but are not offensive. This design is both offensive and awful—and, placed where it is, even worse. I have heard it referred to as a toast-rack as well as various other things, but I have never seen a toast-rack quite as hideous as this. I heartily endorse the comments of my noble friend Lord Blencathra and the noble Baroness, Lady Deech. When I heard her repeating the architect’s description of the proposed design, I thought she was reading from Pseuds Corner in Private Eye.
