The money can't be spent on reducing crime etc because it is arts money and business sponsor money and ringfenced for that purpose.

I love them and think they have really engaged the people of the city and visitors. As for being relevant to the city - Is Wellington on his column any more relevant to Liverpool? Would a Picasso bought by the Walker be relevant to the city? Is the art submitted to the John Moores exhibition relevant to the city? Is a rare first edition owned by Liverpool libraries relevant to the city?( if you hate the Superlamb banana, it has done its job in the same way as if you love it, it has got you to engage in some way! Art to me is about opinions and only a waste or failiure if you dont notice it)
