    ofc they are not. It is ridiculous to want to hold onto them. The amount of people who want to keep them in the UK is very small.

    EDIT: to correct a typo.

        • I’m totally confused by everything you say because none of it seems to have any connection with the previous comment.

          The statues are not in Greece They’re in the UK, that’s the problem.

          What are you saying? Because I literally can’t work it out.

            They are heading to Greece. They will be there within the next 10 years. If Starmer doesn’t just hand them over, then the Greeks will use their veto to stop the UK joining the EU. Since Starmer wants good relations with the EU without actually committing to join, then the Elgin Marbles will be a good start point, as well as doing the right thing.
