@LeeXMartin@BatesLord@ConHome@George_Osborne Wasn't Martin last elected to Gateshead Council in 1992 - Well before Angel of the North? -
@IanMearnsMP@BatesLord@ConHome@George_Osborne I think you'll find that the plans were on his election leaflets -
@LeeXMartin@BatesLord Antony Gormley wasn't even selected as the artist until Jan 1994 So difficult to be campaigning against it in 1992? -
@IanMearnsMP We only got one letter in support. Woman accusing us of being philistines. She was right. -
@LeeXMartin The Angel put Gateshead in good stead with Arts Council and was instrumental in securing funding for BALTIC and Sage Gateshead!
