From The Telegraph-The Archbishop of Canterbury has waded into the Westminster Holocaust memorial debate saying that it is right for the structure to be “right next to the home of our democracy”.
Plans for the project were announced in 2016 by former prime minister David Cameron, with the works being led by the UK Holocaust Memorial Foundation.
The memorial has been proposed to be built on Victoria Tower Gardens on Millbank and would feature 23 large bronze fin structures and an underground learning centre dedicated to the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis as well as millions of other victims.
However they have sparked mounting criticism. The Royal Parks charity, which manage the Grade-II listed park, saying that the plans - which have received cross-party support - would have a “significant harmful impact” on the area.
