A statue of Margaret Thatcher has been egged by protesters just hours after being lowered into place in Grantham.
The statue of the first female prime minister was installed on Sunday morning in her hometown in defiance of threats of attack, with a local councillor insisting “we must never hide from our history”.
But less than two hours after it was lowered onto a 10ft-high plinth a man began throwing eggs from behind a temporary fence surrounding the memorial.
