  • The link between the cross and the statue is that the statue was paid for by Mr Bryant of Bryant&May.
    There are a few versions of the story but I’ll choose the one I like......Bryant paid for the statue by stopping money from his sweated, exploited and poisoned workers wages.
    At the unavailing some of the women workers cut their hands and wiped blood on the statue saying that the statue was paid for with their blood. Since then the statue has had red hands every time the authorities clean it somebody repaints them. The last time it happened was when the area was sanitised before the 2012 Olympics.
