Sculptor suggests solution to row over keeping statue of colonialist in place at Oriel College, Oxford

Gormley’s suggestion, made in an interview with the Financial Times, would be an innovative solution to a years-long battle over whether the 19th-century colonialist and white supremacist should remain in pride of place at the university.
